RABL2B


Description

The RABL2B (RAB, member of RAS oncogene family like 2B) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 22.

RABL2B is a small GTPase essential for the formation of cilia. It doesn't rely on guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) to activate; instead, it directly exchanges GDP for GTP. RABL2B plays a key role in ciliary assembly by binding to the intraflagellar transport (IFT) complex B, which is positioned at the base of the cilium. This binding triggers the entry of the IFT complex into the cilia, contributing to the growth and structure of these cellular appendages.

RABL2B is also known as -.
