Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.4.0)
Enables GTPase activator activity and small GTPase binding activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of Rac protein signal transduction; regulation of dendritic spine morphogenesis; and regulation of neurotransmitter receptor transport, endosome to postsynaptic membrane. Located in dendritic spine. Is active in glutamatergic synapse. Is expressed in central nervous system; olfactory epithelium; respiratory system; and retina. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in acquired immunodeficiency syndrome and skin melanoma. Orthologous to human ARHGAP44 (Rho GTPase activating protein 44).
