About STARD8

Cytogenetic location: Xq13.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): X:68,647,666-68,725,836 (from NCBI)

This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants), 151 orthologues and 2 paralogues. Broad expression in kidney (RPKM 8.5), fat (RPKM 6.6) and 24 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of a subfamily of Rho GTPase activating proteins that contain a steroidogenic acute regulatory protein related lipid transfer domain. The encoded protein localizes to focal adhesions and may be involved in regulating cell morphology. This protein may also function as a tumor suppressor. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]
