Gene information for ECT2 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID1894
Official gene symbolECT2
Full nameepithelial cell transforming sequence 2 oncogene
Aliases,ARHGEF31,FLJ10461,MGC138291,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene is a transforming protein that is related to Rho-specific exchange factors and yeast cell cycle regulators. The expression of this gene is elevated with the onset of DNA synthesis and remains elevated during G2 and M phases. In situ hybridization analysis showed that expression is at a high level in cells undergoing mitosis in regenerating liver. Thus, this protein is expressed in a cell cycle-dependent manner during liver regeneration, and is thought to have an important role in the regulation of cytokinesis. [provided by RefSeq]
