Description

Isoform A: 759 amino acids, 86 kDa; isoform B: 814 amino acids, 92 kDa.

Expression

Highly expressed in epithelial tissues i.e. pancreas islet beta-cells, testicles, prostate, mammary gland, GI glands, squamous layer of skin epithelium; highly expressed in nervous tissues including enteric ganglia; expressed in cardiomyocytes, erythropoiesis cells and liver.

Localisation

Mainly cytoplasmatic.

Function

Interacts with FAK and RhoA both in vivo and in vitro; acts as GTPase activating protein (GAP) for the active GTP-bound RhoA; negative regulator of RhoA.

Homology

Oligophrenin-1, Beta-chimerin, BCR.
