Gene summary | | This 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.
