RGMA

Gene
RGMA
Protein
Repulsive guidance molecule A
Organism
Macaca fascicularis
Length
458 amino acids
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 HRAS-PTK2/FAK1-AKT1 pathway. It also functions as a bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) coreceptor that may signal through SMAD1, SMAD5, and SMAD8 (By similarity).
Similarity
Belongs to the repulsive guidance molecule (RGM) family.

Function
Acts as an axon-specific repulsive guidance molecule in the retinotectal system. Repulsive for a subset of axons of the temporal half of the retina. Provides thus positional information for the temporal axons invading the optic tectum in the stratum opticum.
