Summary

Guanine nucleotide dissociation stimulators (GDSs, or exchange factors), such as RALGDS, are effectors of Ras-related GTPases (see MIM 190020) that participate in signaling for a variety of cellular processes.[supplied by OMIM, Nov 2010]

Forensic Context

A study in rhesus macaques identified the RALGDS as a differentially expressed gene that was upregulated in animals with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, where its expression pattern was better explained by a statistical model incorporating both disease condition and age rather than condition alone [Rivas et al. DOI:10.1038/s41598-024-82770-4].
