InnateDB Gene

IDBG-70710 (ARHGAP20)

Protein Structure

UniProt Annotation

Function

GTPase activator for the Rho-type GTPases by converting them to an inactive GDP-bound state. {ECO:0000250}.

Subcellular Localization

Disease Associations

Note=A chromosomal aberration involving ARHGAP20 may be a cause of B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL). Translocation t(X;11)(q21;q23) with BRWD3 does not result in fusion transcripts but disrupts both genes.

Tissue Specificity

Expressed predominantly in the brain. Lower expression is found in lymph nodes. {ECO:0000269PubMed:15543602}.
