Human Gene RASGRF1 (ENST00000394745.3) from GENCODE V44
Description: Homo sapiens Ras protein specific guanine nucleotide releasing factor 1 (RASGRF1), transcript variant 2, mRNA. (from RefSeq NM_153815) RefSeq Summary (NM_153815): The protein encoded by this gene is a guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) similar to the Saccharomyces cerevisiae CDC25 gene product. Functional analysis has demonstrated that this protein stimulates the dissociation of GDP from RAS protein. The studies of the similar gene in mouse suggested that the Ras-GEF activity of this protein in brain can be activated by Ca2+ influx, muscarinic receptors, and G protein beta-gamma subunit. Mouse studies also indicated that the Ras-GEF signaling pathway mediated by this protein may be important for long-term memory. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been reported. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2009]. Gencode Transcript: ENST00000394745.3 Gencode Gene: ENSG00000058335.16 Transcript (Including UTRs) Position: hg38 chr15:78,961,942-79,005,665 Size: 43,724 Total Exon Count: 14 Strand: - Coding Region Position: hg38 chr15:78,962,144-79,003,946 Size: 41,803 Coding Exon Count: 13
ID:RGRF1_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Ras-specific guanine nucleotide-releasing factor 1; Short=Ras-GRF1; AltName: Full=Guanine nucleotide-releasing protein; Short=GNRP; AltName: Full=Ras-specific nucleotide exchange factor CDC25; FUNCTION: Promotes the exchange of Ras-bound GDP by GTP. SUBUNIT: Homooligomer and heterooligomer with RASGRF2. Interacts with USP8, thereby regulating its stability (By similarity). DOMAIN: The DH (DBL-homology) domain mediates interaction with RASGRF2. PTM: Phosphorylated by PLK2, leading to ubiquitination and degradation by the proteasome (By similarity). PTM: Ubiquitinated and degraded following phosphorylation by PLK2 (By similarity). PTM: Phosphorylated by SRC and LCK. Phosphorylation by LCK increases its capacity to stimulate the GDP/GTP exchange on Ras, whereas its phosphorylation by SRC seems not to have an effect on stimulation activity. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 DH (DBL-homology) domain. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 IQ domain. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 N-terminal Ras-GEF domain. SIMILARITY: Contains 2 PH domains. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 Ras-GEF domain. WEB RESOURCE: Name=Atlas of Genetics and Cytogenetics in Oncology and Haematology; URL="http://atlasgeneticsoncology.org/Genes/RASGRF1ID43453ch15q25.html";
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
