Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionThe gex-2 gene encodes a homolog of p140/Sra-1, a mammalian protein ligand of the small GTPase Rac1; gex-2 is required for tissue morphogenesis and cell migrations.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00005149

Automated_descriptionPredicted to enable RNA 7-methylguanosine cap binding activity. Involved in several processes, including embryonic body morphogenesis; positive regulation of clathrin-dependent endocytosis; and positive regulation of egg-laying behavior. Located in cell junction. Part of SCAR complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Schaaf-Yang syndrome; autism spectrum disorder; and epilepsy (multiple). Is an ortholog of human CYFIP1 (cytoplasmic FMR1 interacting protein 1) and CYFIP2 (cytoplasmic FMR1 interacting protein 2).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943

Remarkthe 3' end is on C18H7 (nucleotides 1 to 3,000)
Map position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.CGC_data_submission
