Arhgdia Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables Rho GDP-dissociation inhibitor activity. Involved in regulation of synaptic vesicle cycle and semaphorin-plexin signaling pathway. Acts upstream of or within Rho protein signal transduction and regulation of protein localization. Located in immunological synapse and nucleus. Is active in Schaffer collateral - CA1 synapse. Is expressed in brain; early nephron; and heart. Used to study nephrotic syndrome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in nephrotic syndrome type 8. Orthologous to human ARHGDIA (Rho GDP dissociation inhibitor alpha). [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 Arhgdia often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
