Name | KALRN (HGNC:4814) |
---|---|
Synonyms | DUET, DUO, HAPIP, TRAD |
Function | Promotes the exchange of GDP by GTP. Activates specific Rho GTPase family members, thereby inducing various signaling mechanisms that regulate neuronal shape, growth, and plasticity, through their effects on the actin cytoskeleton. Induces lamellipodia independent of its GEF activity. |
Cellular Location | Cytoplasm. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton. Note=Associated with the cytoskeleton |
Tissue Location | Isoform 2 is brain specific. Highly expressed in cerebral cortex, putamen, amygdala, hippocampus and caudate nucleus Weakly expressed in brain stem and cerebellum. Isoform 4 is expressed in skeletal muscle. |

Background
Huntington's disease (HD), a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by loss of striatal neurons, is caused by an expansion of a polyglutamine tract in the HD protein huntingtin. This gene encodes a protein that interacts with the huntingtin-associated protein 1, which is a huntingtin binding protein that may function in vesicle trafficking. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described.
