Human Gene RGMA (ENST00000557301.2) from GENCODE V44
Description: Homo sapiens repulsive guidance molecule BMP co-receptor a (RGMA), transcript variant 1, mRNA. (from RefSeq NM_001166283) RefSeq Summary (NM_001166283): This gene encodes a member of the repulsive guidance molecule family. The encoded protein is a glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored glycoprotein that functions as an axon guidance protein in the developing and adult central nervous system. This protein may also function as a tumor suppressor in some cancers. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]. Gencode Transcript: ENST00000557301.2 Gencode Gene: ENSG00000182175.15 Transcript (Including UTRs) Position: hg38 chr15:93,044,818-93,074,128 Size: 29,311 Total Exon Count: 4 Strand: - Coding Region Position: hg38 chr15:93,044,998-93,073,756 Size: 28,759 Coding Exon Count: 4
ID:RGMA_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Repulsive guidance molecule A; AltName: Full=RGM domain family member A; Flags: Precursor; FUNCTION: Member of the repulsive guidance molecule (RGM) family that performs several functions in the developing and adult nervous system. Regulates cephalic neural tube closure, inhibits neurite outgrowth and cortical neuron branching, and the formation of mature synapses. Binding to its receptor NEO1/neogenin induces activation of RHOA-ROCK1/Rho-kinase signaling pathway through UNC5B-ARHGEF12/LARG-PTK2/FAK1 cascade, leading to collapse of the neuronal growth cone and neurite outgrowth inhibition. Furthermore, RGMA binding to NEO1/neogenin leads to HRAS inactivation by influencing HRAS1-PTK2/FAK1-AKT1 pathway. It also functions as a bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) coreceptor that may signal through SMAD1, SMAD5, and SMAD8. SUBUNIT: Interacts with NEO1, BMP2 and BMP4 (By similarity). SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell membrane; Lipid-anchor, GPI-anchor (By similarity). SIMILARITY: Belongs to the repulsive guidance molecule (RGM) family.
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
