Also known as rhoGAPX-1
Summary
ARHGAP6 (Rho GTPase activating protein 6, HGNC:676) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome Xp22.2, encoding Rho GTPase-activating protein 6 (O43182). GTPase activator for the Rho-type GTPases by converting them to an inactive GDP-bound state.
This gene encodes a member of the rhoGAP family of proteins which play a role in the regulation of actin polymerization at the plasma membrane during several cellular processes. This protein is thought to have two independent functions, one as a GTPase-activating protein with specificity for RhoA, and another as a cytoskeletal protein that promotes actin remodeling. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 84 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
