Function. Acts as guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) for RAS proteins. Catalyzes the GDP-to-GTP exchange, resulting in an increase of the active GTP-bound form of HRAS. Acts as a key modulator of PI3K-AKT signaling.
Subunit / interactions. Interacts with TTC1. Interacts with GNA15.
Disease relevance. Noonan syndrome 9 (NS9) [MIM:616559] A form of Noonan syndrome, a disease characterized by short stature, facial dysmorphic features such as hypertelorism, a downward eyeslant and low-set posteriorly rotated ears, and a high incidence of congenital heart defects and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Other features can include a short neck with webbing or redundancy of skin, deafness, motor delay, variable intellectual deficits, multiple skeletal defects, cryptorchidism, and bleeding diathesis. Individuals with Noonan syndrome are at risk of juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia, a myeloproliferative disorder characterized by excessive production of myelomonocytic cells. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 31 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.
