RHOBTB3
Template:PBB Rho-related BTB domain-containing protein 3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the RHOBTB3 gene.[1][2][3]
Function
RHOBTB3 is a member of the evolutionarily conserved RhoBTB subfamily of Rho GTPases. For background information on RHOBTBs, see RHOBTB1 (MIM 607351).[supplied by OMIM][3]

Model organisms have been used in the study of RHOBTB3 function. A conditional knockout mouse line, called Rhobtb3tm1a(KOMP)Wtsi[11][12] was generated as part of the International Knockout Mouse Consortium program — a high-throughput mutagenesis project to generate and distribute animal models of disease to interested scientists.[13][14][15]
Male and female animals underwent a standardized phenotypic screen to determine the effects of deletion.[9][16] Twenty three tests were carried out on mutant mice and four significant abnormalities were observed.[9] Homozygote mutant males had a decreased body weight and abnormal tooth morphology; females had decreased forepaw grip strength and both sexes had a decreased body length.[9]
