    intracellular,cytoplasm
    basic FUNCTION
  • GTPase activator activity
  • functions as a guanine-nucleotide exchange factor (GEF), required for the activation of the Rab5 protein and/or may be a downstream effector of RAB5
  • connects Ras to Rab5 in the HGF-induced endocytosis of E-cadherin
  • involved in the regulation of endocytic trafficking
  • is a key effector that in endothelial cells interacts with and mediates the pro-adhesive and -angiogenic activity of RRAS
  • CELLULAR PROCESS
    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS endocytosis transport
    text intracellular signaling cascade
    PATHWAY
    metabolism
    signaling
    a component
  • RRas/RIN2/RAB5A complex controls endothelial cell adhesion and morphogenesis via active integrin endocytosis and RAC1 signaling
  • INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • interacts preferentially with GTP-bound form of RAB5
  • interacting with Ras
  • RIN1, RIN2, RIN3 serve as guanine nucleotide exchange factors for RAB5A
  • connects three GTPases, RRas, RAB5A and RAC1, to promote endothelial cell adhesion through the regulation of integrin internalization and RAC1 activation
