Gene ID: 55207, updated on 28-Oct-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: Gie1; ARL10C

Summary

Enables G protein activity; guanyl ribonucleotide binding activity; and tubulin binding activity. Involved in several processes, including antigen processing and presentation following phagocytosis; cytosolic transport; and vesicle fusion. Located in cytolytic granule membrane; midbody; and spindle midzone. Is active in early endosome membrane and lysosomal membrane. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Oct 2024]
