Disease relevance of ARHGAP10

 

High impact information on ARHGAP10

  • The GAP domain of ARHGAP10 has GAP activity for RhoA and Cdc42 [1].
  • Over expression of PSGAP in fibroblasts results in reorganization of cytoskeletal structures and changes of cellular morphology, which requires rhoGTPase-activating activity [2].
  • PYK2 interacts with PSGAP Src homology 3 domain via the carboxyl-terminal proline-rich sequence [2].
  • Moreover, PSGAP is localized at cell periphery in fibroblasts in a pleckstrin homology domain-dependent manner [2].
  • Furthermore, PS-GAP decreases the stimulation of cell death induced by stabilization of PAK-2p34 [3].
 

Anatomical context of ARHGAP10

 

Other interactions of ARHGAP10

  • The full length of Graf2 contains a putative PH domain, a RhoGAP domain, and an SH3 domain as well as Graf [4].
  • The catalytically active form of PKNbeta phosphorylated Graf and Graf2 in vitro [4].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of ARHGAP10

  • Sequence analysis shows that XrGAP protein shares 60% overall amino acids identity with a human Rho-GTPase activating protein (ARHGAP10) that is highly expressed in the brain [5].
