Target Species

Human

Target Name

ARL2BP

Target Full Name

ADP-ribosylation factor-like protein 2-binding protein

Target Function

Together with ARL2, plays a role in the nuclear translocation, retention and transcriptional activity of STAT3. May play a role as an effector of ARL2.

Target Involvement

Retinitis pigmentosa with or without situs inversus (RPSI)

Cytoplasm. Mitochondrion intermembrane space. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, microtubule organizing center, centrosome. Nucleus. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, spindle. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, cilium basal body.

Target Protein Families

ARL2BP family

Target Tissue Specificity

Expressed in retina pigment epithelial cells (at protein level). Widely expressed.

Target Research Area

Signal Transduction

Target Background

ADP-ribosylation factor (ARF)-like proteins (ARLs) comprise a functionally distinct group of the ARF family of RAS-related GTPases. The protein encoded by this gene binds to ARL2.GTP with high affinity but does not interact with ARL2.GDP, activated ARF, or RHO proteins. The lack of detectable membrane association of this protein or ARL2 upon activation of ARL2 is suggestive of actions distinct from those of the ARFs. This protein is considered to be the first ARL2-specific effector identified, due to its interaction with ARL2.GTP but lack of ARL2 GTPase-activating protein activity.
