DIRAS3 Gene Information

HGNC symbol
DIRAS3 
Aliases
ARHI; NOEY2 
Common name
DIRAS family GTPase 3 
Entrez Id
9077
Description
This gene encodes a member of the ras superfamily. This gene is imprinted gene with monoallelic expression of the paternal allele which is associated with growth suppression. The encoded protein acts as a tumor suppressor whose function is abrogated in many ovarian and breast cancers. This protein may also play a role autophagy in certain cancer cells by regulating the autophagosome initiation complex. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2015].
