GENE SUMMARY
This gene encodes a member of the GTPase activating protein family which activates a GTPase belonging to the RAS superfamily of small GTP-binding proteins. The encoded protein is insulin-responsive, is dependent on the kinase Akt and requires the Akt-dependent 14-3-3 binding protein which binds sequentially to two serine residues. The result of these interactions is regulation of cell motility. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by R

Retinopathy1. Two susceptibility SNPs in ARHGAP22 were found to be associated with an increased risk of DR both before and after the adjustment: rs10491034 under the dominant model (adjusted OR = 0.51, 95% CI = 0.27-0.95, p = 0.032) and additive model (adjusted OR = 0.47, 95% CI = 0.26-0.84, p = 0.0098) and rs3844492 under the codominant model (adjusted OR = 3.14, 95% CI = 1.10-9.01, p = 0.023) and recessive model (adjusted OR = 3.52, 95% CI = 1.26-9.85, p = 0.011).28544509
