| Background: |
function:Rab effector protein acting as linker between gamma-adaptin, RAB4A and RAB5A. Involved in endocytic membrane fusion and membrane trafficking of recycling endosomes. Stimulates RABGEF1 mediated nucleotide exchange on RAB5A.,PTM:Proteolytic cleavage by caspases in apoptotic cells causes loss of endosome fusion activity.,similarity:Belongs to the rabaptin family.,subunit:Heterodimer with RABGEF1. The heterodimer binds RAB4A and RAB5A that have been activated by GTP-binding. Binds TSC2, GGA1, GGA2, GGA3, AP1G1 and AP1G2., |
