Summary

PLEKHG2 (pleckstrin homology and RhoGEF domain containing G2, HGNC:29515) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 19q13.2, encoding Pleckstrin homology domain-containing family G member 2 (Q9H7P9). May be a transforming oncogene with exchange activity for CDC42.

The protein encoded by this gene is a RhoGTPase that can activate CDC42 by promoting exchange of GDP for GTP on CDC42. The encoded protein is activated by binding to the beta and gamma subunits of heterotrimeric guanine nucleotide-binding protein. Defects in this gene have been associated with leukodystrophy and acquired microcephaly with or without dystonia.

Function. May be a transforming oncogene with exchange activity for CDC42. May be a guanine-nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) for RAC1 and CDC42. Activated by the binding to subunits beta and gamma of the heterotrimeric guanine nucleotide-binding protein (G protein). Involved in the regulation of actin polymerization.

Disease relevance. Leukodystrophy and acquired microcephaly with or without dystonia (LDAMD) [MIM:616763] An autosomal recessive neurologic disorder characterized by profound intellectual disability, dystonia, postnatal microcephaly, and white matter abnormalities consistent with leukodystrophy. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
