Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Predicted to enable several functions, including GTPase activator activity; phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate binding activity; and tubulin binding activity. Involved in neuroblast proliferation and regulation of embryonic development. Predicted to be located in cytoplasmic side of plasma membrane; mitotic spindle; and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of centralspindlin complex. Predicted to be active in several cellular components, including cleavage furrow; midbody; and spindle midzone. Is expressed in several structures, including blastocyst; central nervous system; early embryo; neural retina; and nose. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in congenital dyserythropoietic anemia. Orthologous to human RACGAP1 (Rac GTPase activating protein 1).
