Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the Ras-related protein subfamily of the Ras GTPase superfamily. Members of this family are small GTPases that act as molecular switches to regulate cellular proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. This protein has been reported to activate in vitro transcriptional activity of the serum response element. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Study found that SCII upregulated the expression of miR-204 and downregulated the expression of RAP2C; that hypoxia increased the expression of miR-204 and decreased the expression of RAP2C, and overexpression of RAP2C attenuates the effect of hypoxia on apoptosis rate; and miR-204 could directly bind to RAP2C, and could regulate the expression of RAP2C.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
