Gene: ARHGAP42
Alternate names for this Gene: AD031|GRAF3|TMEM133
Gene Summary: This gene encodes a Rho GTPase-activating protein (RhoGAP), and member of the GRAF or BAR-PH family of proteins. Expression of this gene is enriched in vascular smooth muscle cells and the encoded protein inhibits RhoA activity to regulate vascular tone and control blood pressure. A mutation in the first intron of this gene modulates its expression and is associated with reduced blood pressure in human patients with borderline hypertension.
Gene is located in Chromosome: 11
Location in Chromosome : 11q22.1
Description of this Gene: Rho GTPase activating protein 42
Type of Gene: protein-coding
