Recombinant Human Ras-related protein Rab-22A (RAB22A)

Uniprot Id

Q9UL26

Target Species

Human

Target Name

RAB22A

Target Full Name

Ras-related protein Rab-22A

Target Function

Plays a role in endocytosis and intracellular protein transport. Mediates trafficking of TF from early endosomes to recycling endosomes. Required for NGF-mediated endocytosis of NTRK1, and subsequent neurite outgrowth. Binds GTP and GDP and has low GTPase activity. Alternates between a GTP-bound active form and a GDP-bound inactive form.

Target Subcellular Location

Endosome membrane; Lipid-anchor. Cell membrane; Lipid-anchor. Early endosome. Late endosome. Cell projection, ruffle. Cytoplasmic vesicle. Cytoplasmic vesicle, phagosome. Cytoplasmic vesicle, phagosome membrane; Lipid-anchor; Cytoplasmic side.

Target Protein Families

Small GTPase superfamily, Rab family

Target Background

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the RAB family of small GTPases. The GTP-bound form of the encoded protein has been shown to interact with early-endosomal antigen 1, and may be involved in the trafficking of and interaction between endosomal compartments.
