About RAB23

Cytogenetic location: 6p12.1-p11.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 6:57,186,992-57,222,307 (from NCBI)

This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants), 218 orthologues, 68 paralogues and is associated with 3 phenotypes. Broad expression in endometrium (RPKM 23.9), urinary bladder (RPKM 18.7) and 20 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a small GTPase of the Ras superfamily. Rab proteins are involved in the regulation of diverse cellular functions associated with intracellular membrane trafficking, including Autophagy and immune response to Bacterial infection. The encoded protein may play a role in central nervous system development by antagonizing sonic Hedgehog signaling. Disruption of this gene has been implicated in Carpenter syndrome as well as Cancer. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]
