Asap1 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables GTPase activator activity and phospholipid binding activity. Involved in regulation of postsynapse organization. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of dendritic spine development and positive regulation of membrane tubulation. Located in dendritic spine and podosome. Is active in glutamatergic synapse. Is expressed in several structures, including gonad; hemolymphoid system; limb; long bone; and nervous system. Orthologous to human ASAP1 (ArfGAP with SH3 domain, ankyrin repeat and PH domain 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Asap1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
