motifs/domains
  • two calcium channel beta subunit binding sites within the N-terminal 123 residues, and their interaction with the beta subunit along with membrane-targeting is required for REM2 to inhibit N-type channel activity
  • HOMOLOGY
    Homologene
    FAMILY RGK family of small GTPases
    CATEGORY regulatory
    SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION     plasma membrane
    basic FUNCTION
  • involved in the regulation of L-type Ca2+ channel activity and insulin secretion
  • GTPase with distinctive biochemical properties and possessing a novel cellular localization signal, consistent with its having a unique role in cell physiology
  • can promote angiogenesis and has multiple roles, such as migration, aside to proliferation alone
