Gene: RAP1B

Alternate names for this Gene: K-REV|RAL1B

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of the RAS-like small GTP-binding protein superfamily. Members of this family regulate multiple cellular processes including cell adhesion and growth and differentiation. This protein localizes to cellular membranes and has been shown to regulate integrin-mediated cell signaling. This protein also plays a role in regulating outside-in signaling in platelets. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. Pseudogenes of this gene are found on chromosomes 3, 5, 6 and 9.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 12

Location in Chromosome : 12q15

Description of this Gene: RAP1B, member of RAS oncogene family

Type of Gene: protein-coding
