Product Overview
Tag | His |
Host Species | Human |
Accession | BC001338 |
Synonym | Rho; RHOHP1; RHOM |
Background | RhoD is a member of the Rho gene family that interacts with protein kinases and serves as a target of activated GTPase. Rho binds GTP and plays a critical role in muscle differentiation by regulating the expression of myogenin and MEF2 genes. Furthermore, Rho is involved in endosome dynamics and reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton and plays a role in coordinating membrane transport (1). mDia and ROCK are downstream effectors of Rho mediating Rho action on the actin cytoskeleton; mDia produces actin filaments by nucleation and polymerization and ROCK activate myosin to cross-link them for induction of actomyosin bundles and contractility (2). |

Target Details
Target Function | Involved in endosome dynamics. May coordinate membrane transport with the function of the cytoskeleton. Involved in the internalization and trafficking of activated tyrosine kinase receptors such as PDGFRB. Participates in the reorganization of actin cytoskeleton; the function seems to involve WHAMM and includes regulation of filopodia formation and actin filament bundling. Can modulate the effect of DAPK3 in reorganization of actin cytoskeleton and focal adhesion dissolution. |
Subcellular Location | Cell membrane; Lipid-anchor; Cytoplasmic side. Early endosome. |
Protein Families | Small GTPase superfamily, Rho family |
Database References | |
Tissue Specificity | Heart, placenta, liver, skeletal muscle, and pancreas and, with weaker intensity, in several other tissues. |
