Gene information for RASD1 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID51655
Official gene symbolRASD1
Full nameRAS, dexamethasone-induced 1
Aliases,AGS1,DEXRAS1,MGC:26290,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a Ras-related protein that is stimulated by dexamethasone. The exact function of this gene is unknown, but it may play a role in dexamethasone-induced alterations in cell morphology, growth and cell-extracellular matrix interactions. In addition, studies of a similar rat protein suggest that it functions as as a novel physiologic nitric oxide (NO) effector. The gene product belongs to the Ras superfamily of small GTPases.
