Ras-related protein Rab-1B (RAB1B)

Function: - protein transport; - endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to GOLGI & intra-GOLGI transport - regulates vesicular transport between ER& successive Golgi compartments - Rab-1B binds GTP & GDP & possesses intrinsic GTPase activity (putative) - prenylated; by GGTase II, only after interaction of the substrate with Rab escort protein 1 (REP1) - interacts with MICAL1, MICAL2 & MICAL3 - interacts with GDI1; interaction requires GDP-bound state - interacts with CHM/REP1; interaction requires GDP-bound form & is necessary for prenylation by GGTase II Structure: - belongs to the small GTPase superfamily, Rab family Compartment: - membrane; lipid-anchor; cytoplasmic side - cytoplasm - targeted by REP1 to membranes of specific subcellular compartments including endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi, & intermediate vesicles between these two compartments - in the GDP-form, colocalizes with GDI in the cytoplasm (putative)
