ABR, RhoGEF and GTPase activating protein is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ABR gene. [5]

Function

The ABR activator of RhoGEF and GTPase, also symbolized as ABR, gene is located on Chromosome 11 and has a reported 13 alternatively spliced transcript variants.[6] This gene is found to have ubiquitous expression within 23 human tissues, including the heart and brain.[7] The protein encoded by ABR shares homology with the Breakpoint Cluster Region (BCR) gene located on chromosome 22 and has shown to share similar protein functions.[8] Additionally, the protein encoded by this gene contains a GTPase-activating protein domain, a domain found in members of the Rho family of GTP-binding proteins. Functional studies in mice determined that this protein plays a role in vestibular morphogenesis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been reported for this gene.[9] [provided by RefSeq, February 2012].
