LARG Antibody

LARG (leukemia-associated RhoGEF) is homologous to PDZ-RhoGEF and functions as a RhoA-specific guanine nucleotide exchange factor. RhoGEFs catalyze the exchange of GDP for GTP on the GTPase, Rho, to activate downstream signaling pathways. LARG contains a PDZ [post synaptic density protein (PSD95), Drosophila discs-large tumor suppressor (DIgA), and zonula occludens-1 protein (zo-1)] domain which is an 80-90 amino acid structural domain found in signaling proteins in bacteria, yeast, plants, and animals. LARG is proposed to play a role in cell polarity and microtubule dynamics and may act as a GTPase-activating protein (GAP) for the heterotrimeric Galpha(12) and Galpha(13) proteins.

Alternative names for LARG Antibody include Rho guanine nucleotide exchange factor 12 antibody, ARHGEF12 antibody, PRO02792 antibody, KIAA0382 antibody.
