FAMILY
  • small GTPase superfamily
  • Rab family
  • CATEGORY protooncogene
    SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION     plasma membrane
        intracellular
    intracellular,cytoplasm,organelle,endosome
    basic FUNCTION
  • GTPase involved in endocytosis
  • involved in vesicular trafficking at the plasma membrane
  • regulatory role for RAB5A, RAB5B, RAB5C in not only the early endocytic pathway, but also the late endocytic pathway, of membrane trafficking in coordination with PI(3)K activity
  • selective association of RAB5A and RIN1 contributes to the dominance of RAB5A in EGFR trafficking, whereas RAB5B, RAB5C may have major functions unrelated to the EGFR degradation pathway
  • role of RAB5A, RAB5B, RAB5C as endosome organizer revealing the resilience mechanisms of the endocytic system
  • RAB5A, RAB5B, RAB5C are principal components of early endosome biogenesis
  • RAB5A, RAB5B, RAB5C selectively oversee the multiple signaling and trafficking events associated with the endocytic network

    INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule nucleotide,
    GTP binding
    protein
  • interacting with LRRK2 (in conjunction with its interaction with RAB5B, LRRK2 plays an important role in synaptic function by modulating the endocytosis of synaptic vesicles)
  • small GTPase protein that regulates the motility and fusion of early endosomes, interacting with LRRK2 and co-regulating synaptic vesicle endocytosis
  • cell & other
    REGULATION
    Phosphorylated by LRRK2 (LRRK2 phosphorylates RAB5B at its Thr6 residue)
