Subcellular location

Subcellular Location:
Recycling endosome membrane; Lipid-anchor; Cytoplasmic side. Midbody. Note=May also localize to the Golgi (PubMed:7962206) and the gelatinase-containing granules of neutrophils (PubMed:8391995). Colocalizes with RASGEF1B to midbody at telophase (PubMed:23894443).

Function

Function:
Small GTP-binding protein which cycles between a GDP-bound inactive and a GTP-bound active form. In its active form interacts with and regulates several effectors including MAP4K4, MINK1 and TNIK. Part of a signaling complex composed of NEDD4, RAP2A and TNIK which regulates neuronal dendrite extension and arborization during development. More generally, it is part of several signaling cascades and may regulate cytoskeletal rearrangements, cell migration, cell adhesion and cell spreading.
Enzyme Regulation:
ENZYME REGULATION: Activated by the guanine nucleotide-exchange factors RAPGEF3 and RAPGEF4 in a cAMP-dependent manner. Nucleotide exchange is also specifically stimulated by RAPGEF5, RASGEF1A and RASGEF1B.
