MIA-RAB4B
Description
The MIA-RAB4B (MIA-RAB4B readthrough (NMD candidate)) is a ncRNA gene located on chromosome 19.
MIA-RAB4B is a gene that encodes a protein involved in vesicular trafficking. It plays a role in transporting proteins from the ER to the Golgi, potentially interacting with other proteins for vesicle tethering and fusion. This gene has been linked to insulin secretion.
MIA-RAB4B, also known as Golgi-associated, RAB-like protein 4B, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MIA-RAB4B gene. This gene is located on chromosome 12 and encodes a small GTPase belonging to the Rab family, which is involved in vesicular trafficking. MIA-RAB4B has been shown to play a role in the transport of proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to the Golgi apparatus, a key step in the secretory pathway. It is believed to interact with other proteins, including those involved in vesicle tethering and fusion, to facilitate this transport process. Notably, it has been implicated in the regulation of insulin secretion, highlighting its potential significance in metabolic processes. Further research is needed to fully understand the precise functions and regulatory mechanisms of MIA-RAB4B.
MIA-RAB4B is also known as RAB4B.
