Description
ARHGEF10L (Rho guanine nucleotide exchange factor 10 like) is a protein-coding gene that encodes a guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) for Rho GTPases. It activates RhoA, Rac1, and Cdc42 by catalyzing the exchange of GDP for GTP, thereby regulating cytoskeletal dynamics, cell migration, and cell polarity. The gene is located on chromosome 1p36.13 and is expressed in multiple tissues.

Protein Summary
ARHGEF10L encodes a 1086-amino acid protein containing a Dbl homology (DH) domain and a pleckstrin homology (PH) domain, characteristic of RhoGEFs. It localizes to the cytoplasm and plasma membrane, and functions as an activator of RhoA, Rac1, and Cdc42. The protein is involved in neurite outgrowth, cell migration, and cytoskeletal remodeling. Alternative splicing yields multiple isoforms.
