Farp1 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor activity. Involved in Rac protein signal transduction; enzyme-linked receptor protein signaling pathway; and positive regulation of skeletal muscle acetylcholine-gated channel clustering. Predicted to be located in cytoplasmic side of plasma membrane; cytosol; and dendrite. Predicted to be active in glutamatergic synapse. Predicted to be extrinsic component of postsynaptic membrane. Is expressed in lung epithelium; nephron; nervous system; and retina. Orthologous to human FARP1 (FERM, ARH/RhoGEF and pleckstrin domain protein 1).

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 Farp1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
