    Summary
    Enables GTPase activator activity. Involved in positive regulation of cell population proliferation. Located in apical cortex. Is expressed in organism. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in allergic disease and schizophrenia. Orthologous to human ARHGAP18 (Rho GTPase activating protein 18); ARHGAP28 (Rho GTPase activating protein 28); and ARHGAP40 (Rho GTPase activating protein 40).
