Disease
ELMO2_HUMAN Ramon syndrome;Primary intraosseous venous malformation. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Function
ELMO2_HUMAN Involved in cytoskeletal rearrangements required for phagocytosis of apoptotic cells and cell motility. Acts in association with DOCK1 and CRK. Was initially proposed to be required in complex with DOCK1 to activate Rac Rho small GTPases. May enhance the guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) activity of DOCK1.[1] [2] [3] [4]
