Genes affected

ARHGEF15 (HGNC:15590): (Rho guanine nucleotide exchange factor 15) Rho GTPases play a fundamental role in numerous cellular processes that are initiated by extracellular stimuli that work through G protein-coupled receptors. This gene encodes a protein that functions as a specific guanine nucleotide exchange factor for RhoA. It also interacts with ephrin A4 in vascular smooth muscle cells. Two alternatively spliced transcripts variants that encode the same protein have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2010]

Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.1918G>C (p.E640Q) alteration is located in exon 12 (coding exon 11) of the ARHGEF15 gene. This alteration results from a G to C substitution at nucleotide position 1918, causing the glutamic acid (E) at amino acid position 640 to be replaced by a glutamine (Q). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.
