Arhgap12 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable GTPase activator activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including negative regulation of small GTPase mediated signal transduction; phagocytosis, engulfment; and small GTPase-mediated signal transduction. Predicted to be located in phagocytic cup. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and plasma membrane. Is expressed in bladder; gut; nervous system; sensory organ; and skeleton. Orthologous to human ARHGAP12 (Rho GTPase activating protein 12). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 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 Arhgap12 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
