Rasgrp3 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor activity; kinase binding activity; and small GTPase binding activity. Acts upstream of or within Ras protein signal transduction. Located in perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Part of guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor complex. Is expressed in cerebral cortex ventricular layer; embryo; and thymus primordium. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hypertension. Orthologous to human RASGRP3 (RAS guanyl releasing protein 3). [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 Rasgrp3 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
