Iqgap1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables small GTPase binding activity. Involved in several processes, including caveola assembly; cell surface receptor protein tyrosine kinase signaling pathway; and cellular response to epidermal growth factor stimulus. Acts upstream of or within fibroblast migration; negative regulation of dephosphorylation; and regulation of cytokine production. Located in several cellular components, including basolateral plasma membrane; focal adhesion; and lateral plasma membrane. Part of ribonucleoprotein complex. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; early conceptus; genitourinary system; and hemolymphoid system gland. Orthologous to human IQGAP1 (IQ motif containing GTPase activating protein 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 Iqgap1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
