>gnl|CDD|206659 cd01867, Rab8_Rab10_Rab13_like, Rab GTPase families 8, 10, 13
(Rab8, Rab10, Rab13). Rab8/Sec4/Ypt2 are known or
suspected to be involved in post-Golgi transport to the
plasma membrane. It is likely that these Rabs have
functions that are specific to the mammalian lineage and
have no orthologs in plants. Rab8 modulates polarized
membrane transport through reorganization of actin and
microtubules, induces the formation of new surface
extensions, and has an important role in directed
membrane transport to cell surfaces. The Ypt2 gene of
the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe encodes a
member of the Ypt/Rab family of small GTP-binding
proteins, related in sequence to Sec4p of Saccharomyces
cerevisiae but closer to mammalian Rab8. GTPase
activating proteins (GAPs) interact with GTP-bound Rab
and accelerate the hydrolysis of GTP to GDP. Guanine
nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) interact with
GDP-bound Rabs to promote the formation of the GTP-bound
state. Rabs are further regulated by guanine nucleotide
dissociation inhibitors (GDIs), which facilitate Rab
recycling by masking C-terminal lipid binding and
promoting cytosolic localization. Most Rab GTPases
contain a lipid modification site at the C-terminus,
with sequence motifs CC, CXC, or CCX. Lipid binding is
essential for membrane attachment, a key feature of most
Rab proteins. Due to the presence of truncated sequences
in this CD, the lipid modification site is not available
for annotation.

and K-Ras4A/4B. H-Ras/N-Ras/K-Ras subfamily. H-Ras,
N-Ras, and K-Ras4A/4B are the prototypical members of
the Ras family. These isoforms generate distinct signal
outputs despite interacting with a common set of
activators and effectors, and are strongly associated
with oncogenic progression in tumor initiation. Mutated
versions of Ras that are insensitive to GAP stimulation
(and are therefore constitutively active) are found in a
significant fraction of human cancers. Many Ras guanine
nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) have been identified.
They are sequestered in the cytosol until activation by
growth factors triggers recruitment to the plasma
membrane or Golgi, where the GEF colocalizes with Ras.
Active (GTP-bound) Ras interacts with several effector
proteins that stimulate a variety of diverse cytoplasmic
signaling activities. Some are known to positively
mediate the oncogenic properties of Ras, including Raf,
phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K), RalGEFs, and
Tiam1. Others are proposed to play negative regulatory
roles in oncogenesis, including RASSF and NORE/MST1.
Most Ras proteins contain a lipid modification site at
the C-terminus, with a typical sequence motif CaaX,
where a = an aliphatic amino acid and X = any amino
acid. Lipid binding is essential for membrane
attachment, a key feature of most Ras proteins. Due to

>gnl|CDD|206642 cd00876, Ras, Rat sarcoma (Ras) family of small guanosine
triphosphatases (GTPases). The Ras family of the Ras
superfamily includes classical N-Ras, H-Ras, and K-Ras,
as well as R-Ras, Rap, Ral, Rheb, Rhes, ARHI, RERG,
Rin/Rit, RSR1, RRP22, Ras2, Ras-dva, and RGK proteins.
Ras proteins regulate cell growth, proliferation and
differentiation. Ras is activated by guanine nucleotide
exchange factors (GEFs) that release GDP and allow GTP
binding. Many RasGEFs have been identified. These are
sequestered in the cytosol until activation by growth
factors triggers recruitment to the plasma membrane or
Golgi, where the GEF colocalizes with Ras. Active
GTP-bound Ras interacts with several effector proteins:
among the best characterized are the Raf kinases,
phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K), RalGEFs and

First identified in rat pancreatic acinar cells, Rab26
is believed to play a role in recruiting mature granules
to the plasma membrane upon beta-adrenergic stimulation.
Rab26 belongs to the Rab functional group III, which are
considered key regulators of intracellular vesicle
transport during exocytosis. GTPase activating proteins
(GAPs) interact with GTP-bound Rab and accelerate the
hydrolysis of GTP to GDP. Guanine nucleotide exchange
factors (GEFs) interact with GDP-bound Rabs to promote
the formation of the GTP-bound state. Rabs are further

>gnl|CDD|206640 cd00154, Rab, Ras-related in brain (Rab) family of small guanosine
triphosphatases (GTPases). Rab GTPases form the largest
family within the Ras superfamily. There are at least 60
Rab genes in the human genome, and a number of Rab
GTPases are conserved from yeast to humans. Rab GTPases
are small, monomeric proteins that function as molecular
switches to regulate vesicle trafficking pathways. The
different Rab GTPases are localized to the cytosolic
face of specific intracellular membranes, where they
regulate distinct steps in membrane traffic pathways. In
the GTP-bound form, Rab GTPases recruit specific sets of
effector proteins onto membranes. Through their
effectors, Rab GTPases regulate vesicle formation,
actin- and tubulin-dependent vesicle movement, and
membrane fusion. GTPase activating proteins (GAPs)
interact with GTP-bound Rab and accelerate the
hydrolysis of GTP to GDP. Guanine nucleotide exchange
factors (GEFs) interact with GDP-bound Rabs to promote
the formation of the GTP-bound state. Rabs are further
regulated by guanine nucleotide dissociation inhibitors
(GDIs), which mask C-terminal lipid binding and promote
cytosolic localization. While most unicellular organisms
possess 5-20 Rab members, several have been found to
possess 60 or more Rabs; for many of these Rab isoforms,
homologous proteins are not found in other organisms.
Most Rab GTPases contain a lipid modification site at
the C-terminus, with sequence motifs CC, CXC, or CCX.
Lipid binding is essential for membrane attachment, a
key feature of most Rab proteins. Since crystal
structures often lack C-terminal residues, the lipid
modification site is not available for annotation in
many of the CDs in the hierarchy, but is included where
possible.

Ypt1. Rab1/Ypt1 subfamily. Rab1 is found in every
eukaryote and is a key regulatory component for the
transport of vesicles from the ER to the Golgi
apparatus. Studies on mutations of Ypt1, the yeast
homolog of Rab1, showed that this protein is necessary
for the budding of vesicles of the ER as well as for
their transport to, and fusion with, the Golgi

cis-Golgi membranes and interacts with Golgi matrix
proteins. Rab2 is also implicated in the maturation of
vesicular tubular clusters (VTCs), which are
microtubule-associated intermediates in transport
between the ER and Golgi apparatus. In plants, Rab2
regulates vesicle trafficking between the ER and the

>gnl|CDD|133375 cd04175, Rap1, Rap1 family GTPase consists of Rap1a and Rap1b
isoforms. The Rap1 subgroup is part of the Rap
subfamily of the Ras family. It can be further divided
into the Rap1a and Rap1b isoforms. In humans, Rap1a and
Rap1b share 95% sequence homology, but are products of
two different genes located on chromosomes 1 and 12,
respectively. Rap1a is sometimes called smg p21 or Krev1
in the older literature. Rap1 proteins are believed to
perform different cellular functions, depending on the
isoform, its subcellular localization, and the effector
proteins it binds. For example, in rat salivary gland,
neutrophils, and platelets, Rap1 localizes to secretory
granules and is believed to regulate exocytosis or the
formation of secretory granules. Rap1 has also been
shown to localize in the Golgi of rat fibroblasts,
zymogen granules, plasma membrane, and the microsomal
membrane of pancreatic acini, as well as in the
endocytic compartment of skeletal muscle cells and
fibroblasts. High expression of Rap1 has been observed
in the nucleus of human oropharyngeal squamous cell
carcinomas (SCCs) and cell lines; interestingly, in the
SCCs, the active GTP-bound form localized to the
nucleus, while the inactive GDP-bound form localized to
the cytoplasm. Rap1 plays a role in phagocytosis by
controlling the binding of adhesion receptors (typically
integrins) to their ligands. In yeast, Rap1 has been
implicated in multiple functions, including activation
and silencing of transcription and maintenance of
telomeres. Rap1a, which is stimulated by T-cell receptor
(TCR) activation, is a positive regulator of T cells by
directing integrin activation and augmenting lymphocyte
responses. In murine hippocampal neurons, Rap1b
determines which neurite will become the axon and
directs the recruitment of Cdc42, which is required for
formation of dendrites and axons. In murine platelets,
Rap1b is required for normal homeostasis in vivo and is
involved in integrin activation. Most Ras proteins
contain a lipid modification site at the C-terminus,
with a typical sequence motif CaaX, where a = an
aliphatic amino acid and X = any amino acid. Lipid
binding is essential for membrane attachment, a key

Rab11a, Rab11b, and Rab25. Rab11a, Rab11b, and Rab25
are closely related, evolutionary conserved Rab proteins
that are differentially expressed. Rab11a is
ubiquitously synthesized, Rab11b is enriched in brain
and heart and Rab25 is only found in epithelia. Rab11/25
proteins seem to regulate recycling pathways from
endosomes to the plasma membrane and to the trans-Golgi
network. Furthermore, Rab11a is thought to function in
the histamine-induced fusion of tubulovesicles
containing H+, K+ ATPase with the plasma membrane in
gastric parietal cells and in insulin-stimulated
insertion of GLUT4 in the plasma membrane of
cardiomyocytes. Overexpression of Rab25 has recently
been observed in ovarian cancer and breast cancer, and
has been correlated with worsened outcomes in both
diseases. In addition, Rab25 overexpression has also
been observed in prostate cancer, transitional cell
carcinoma of the bladder, and invasive breast tumor
cells. GTPase activating proteins (GAPs) interact with
GTP-bound Rab and accelerate the hydrolysis of GTP to

>gnl|CDD|206710 cd04139, RalA_RalB, Ral (Ras-like) family containing highly
homologous RalA and RalB. The Ral (Ras-like) subfamily
consists of the highly homologous RalA and RalB. Ral
proteins are believed to play a crucial role in
tumorigenesis, metastasis, endocytosis, and actin
cytoskeleton dynamics. Despite their high sequence
similarity (>80% sequence identity), nonoverlapping and
opposing functions have been assigned to RalA and RalBs
in tumor migration. In human bladder and prostate cancer
cells, RalB promotes migration while RalA inhibits it. A
Ral-specific set of GEFs has been identified that are
activated by Ras binding. This RalGEF activity is
enhanced by Ras binding to another of its target
proteins, phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K). Ral
effectors include RLIP76/RalBP1, a Rac/cdc42 GAP, and
the exocyst (Sec6/8) complex, a heterooctomeric protein
complex that is involved in tethering vesicles to
specific sites on the plasma membrane prior to
exocytosis. In rat kidney cells, RalB is required for
functional assembly of the exocyst and for localizing
the exocyst to the leading edge of migrating cells. In
human cancer cells, RalA is required to support
anchorage-independent proliferation and RalB is required
to suppress apoptosis. RalA has been shown to localize
to the plasma membrane while RalB is localized to the
intracellular vesicles. Most Ras proteins contain a

>gnl|CDD|206709 cd04137, RheB, Ras Homolog Enriched in Brain (RheB) is a small
GTPase. Rheb (Ras Homolog Enriched in Brain) subfamily.
Rheb was initially identified in rat brain, where its
expression is elevated by seizures or by long-term
potentiation. It is expressed ubiquitously, with
elevated levels in muscle and brain. Rheb functions as
an important mediator between the tuberous sclerosis
complex proteins, TSC1 and TSC2, and the mammalian
target of rapamycin (TOR) kinase to stimulate cell
growth. TOR kinase regulates cell growth by controlling
nutrient availability, growth factors, and the energy
status of the cell. TSC1 and TSC2 form a dimeric complex
that has tumor suppressor activity, and TSC2 is a GTPase
activating protein (GAP) for Rheb. The TSC1/TSC2 complex
inhibits the activation of TOR kinase through Rheb. Rheb
has also been shown to induce the formation of large
cytoplasmic vacuoles in a process that is dependent on
the GTPase cycle of Rheb, but independent of the TOR
kinase, suggesting Rheb plays a role in endocytic
trafficking that leads to cell growth and cell-cycle
progression. Most Ras proteins contain a lipid
modification site at the C-terminus, with a typical
sequence motif CaaX, where a = an aliphatic amino acid
and X = any amino acid. Lipid binding is essential for

M-Ras/R-Ras-like subfamily contains R-Ras2/TC21,
M-Ras/R-Ras3, and related members of the Ras family.
M-Ras is expressed in lympho-hematopoetic cells. It
interacts with some of the known Ras effectors, but
appears to also have its own effectors. Expression of
mutated M-Ras leads to transformation of several types
of cell lines, including hematopoietic cells, mammary
epithelial cells, and fibroblasts. Overexpression of
M-Ras is observed in carcinomas from breast, uterus,
thyroid, stomach, colon, kidney, lung, and rectum. In
addition, expression of a constitutively active M-Ras
mutant in murine bone marrow induces a malignant mast
cell leukemia that is distinct from the monocytic
leukemia induced by H-Ras. TC21, along with H-Ras, has

The Rap subfamily consists of the Rap1, Rap2, and RSR1.
Rap subfamily proteins perform different cellular
functions, depending on the isoform and its subcellular
localization. For example, in rat salivary gland,
neutrophils, and platelets, Rap1 localizes to secretory
granules and is believed to regulate exocytosis or the
formation of secretory granules. Rap1 has also been
shown to localize in the Golgi of rat fibroblasts,
zymogen granules, plasma membrane, and microsomal
membrane of the pancreatic acini, as well as in the
endocytic compartment of skeletal muscle cells and
fibroblasts. Rap1 localizes in the nucleus of human
oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs) and cell
lines. Rap1 plays a role in phagocytosis by controlling
the binding of adhesion receptors (typically integrins)
to their ligands. In yeast, Rap1 has been implicated in
multiple functions, including activation and silencing
of transcription and maintenance of telomeres. Rap2 is
involved in multiple functions, including activation of
c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) to regulate the actin
cytoskeleton and activation of the Wnt/beta-catenin
signaling pathway in embryonic Xenopus. A number of
effector proteins for Rap2 have been identified,
including isoform 3 of the human mitogen-activated
protein kinase kinase kinase kinase 4 (MAP4K4) and
Traf2- and Nck-interacting kinase (TNIK), and the
RalGEFs RalGDS, RGL, and Rlf, which also interact with
Rap1 and Ras. RSR1 is the fungal homolog of Rap1 and
Rap2. In budding yeasts, it is involved in selecting a
site for bud growth, which directs the establishment of
cell polarization. The Rho family GTPase Cdc42 and its
GEF, Cdc24, then establish an axis of polarized growth.
It is believed that Cdc42 interacts directly with RSR1
in vivo. In filamentous fungi such as Ashbya gossypii,
RSR1 is a key regulator of polar growth in the hypha.
Most Ras proteins contain a lipid modification site at

Rab4 is involved in the regulation of many surface

transferrin receptor, integrins, and surfactant protein
A. Experimental data implicate Rab4 in regulation of the

in calcium-dependent exocytosis in platelets, in
alpha-amylase secretion in pancreatic cells, and in
insulin-induced translocation of Glut4 from internal

the establishment of cell polarization. The Rho family
GTPase cdc42 and its GEF, cdc24, then establish an axis

transcriptional and posttranscriptional mechanisms in
response to environmental cues. RGK proteins bind to the
beta subunit of L-type calcium channels, causing
functional down-regulation of these voltage-dependent
calcium channels, and either termination of

>gnl|CDD|133306 cd04106, Rab23_like, Rab GTPase family 23 (Rab23)-like. Rab23-like
subfamily. Rab23 is a member of the Rab family of small
GTPases. In mouse, Rab23 has been shown to function as a
negative regulator in the sonic hedgehog (Shh) signaling
pathway. Rab23 mediates the activity of Gli2 and Gli3,
transcription factors that regulate Shh signaling in the
spinal cord, primarily by preventing Gli2 activation in
the absence of Shh ligand. Rab23 also regulates a step
in the cytoplasmic signal transduction pathway that
mediates the effect of Smoothened (one of two integral
membrane proteins that are essential components of the
Shh signaling pathway in vertebrates). In humans, Rab23
is expressed in the retina. Mice contain an isoform that
shares 93% sequence identity with the human Rab23 and an
alternative splicing isoform that is specific to the
brain. This isoform causes the murine open brain
phenotype, indicating it may have a role in the
development of the central nervous system. GTPase
activating proteins (GAPs) interact with GTP-bound Rab
and accelerate the hydrolysis of GTP to GDP. Guanine
nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) interact with
GDP-bound Rabs to promote the formation of the GTP-bound
state. Rabs are further regulated by guanine nucleotide
dissociation inhibitors (GDIs), which facilitate Rab
recycling by masking C-terminal lipid binding and
promoting cytosolic localization. Most Rab GTPases
contain a lipid modification site at the C-terminus,
with sequence motifs CC, CXC, or CCX. Lipid binding is
essential for membrane attachment, a key feature of most
Rab proteins. Due to the presence of truncated sequences
in this CD, the lipid modification site is not available
for annotation.

triphosphatases (GTPases). Rho2 is a fungal GTPase that
plays a role in cell morphogenesis, control of cell wall
integrity, control of growth polarity, and maintenance
of growth direction. Rho2 activates the protein kinase C
homolog Pck2, and Pck2 controls Mok1, the major (1-3)
alpha-D-glucan synthase. Together with Rho1 (RhoA), Rho2
regulates the construction of the cell wall. Unlike
Rho1, Rho2 is not an essential protein, but its
overexpression is lethal. Most Rho proteins contain a
lipid modification site at the C-terminus, with a
typical sequence motif CaaX, where a = an aliphatic
amino acid and X = any amino acid. Lipid binding is
essential for proper intracellular localization via
membrane attachment. As with other Rho family GTPases,
the GDP/GTP cycling is regulated by GEFs (guanine
nucleotide exchange factors), GAPs (GTPase-activating
proteins) and GDIs (guanine nucleotide dissociation
inhibitors).

small GTPases. Ran GTPase is involved in diverse
biological functions, such as nuclear transport, spindle
formation during mitosis, DNA replication, and cell
division. Among the Ras superfamily, Ran is a unique
small G protein. It does not have a lipid modification
motif at the C-terminus to bind to the membrane, which
is often observed within the Ras superfamily. Ran may
therefore interact with a wide range of proteins in
various intracellular locations. Like other GTPases, Ran
exists in GTP- and GDP-bound conformations that interact
differently with effectors. Conversion between these
forms and the assembly or disassembly of effector
complexes requires the interaction of regulator
proteins. The intrinsic GTPase activity of Ran is very
low, but it is greatly stimulated by a GTPase-activating
protein (RanGAP1) located in the cytoplasm. By contrast,
RCC1, a guanine nucleotide exchange factor that
generates RanGTP, is bound to chromatin and confined to
the nucleus. Ran itself is mobile and is actively
imported into the nucleus by a mechanism involving
NTF-2. Together with the compartmentalization of its
regulators, this is thought to produce a relatively high
concentration of RanGTP in the nucleus.

of a set of proteins characterized only in Xenopus
leavis, to date. In Xenopus Ras-dva expression is
activated by the transcription factor Otx2 and begins
during gastrulation throughout the anterior ectoderm.
Ras-dva expression is inhibited in the anterior neural
plate by factor Xanf1. Downregulation of Ras-dva results
in head development abnormalities through the inhibition
of several regulators of the anterior neural plate and
folds patterning, including Otx2, BF-1, Xag2, Pax6,

interferes with the FGF-8a signaling within the anterior

Rab40b and Rab40c. The Rab40 subfamily contains Rab40a,
Rab40b, and Rab40c, which are all highly homologous. In
rat, Rab40c is localized to the perinuclear recycling
compartment (PRC), and is distributed in a
tissue-specific manor, with high expression in brain,
heart, kidney, and testis, low expression in lung and
liver, and no expression in spleen and skeletal muscle.
Rab40c is highly expressed in differentiated
oligodendrocytes but minimally expressed in
oligodendrocyte progenitors, suggesting a role in the
vesicular transport of myelin components. Unlike most
other Ras-superfamily proteins, Rab40c was shown to have
a much lower affinity for GTP, and an affinity for GDP
that is lower than for GTP. GTPase activating proteins
(GAPs) interact with GTP-bound Rab and accelerate the

NMRa-like, atypical (a) SDRs. TMR is an atypical
NADP-binding protein of the SDR family. It lacks the
active site residues of the SDRs but has a glycine rich
NAD(P)-binding motif that matches the extended SDRs.
Proteins in this subgroup however, are more similar in
length to the classical SDRs. TMR was identified as a
reducer of triphenylmethane dyes, important
environmental pollutants. This subgroup also includes
Escherichia coli NADPH-dependent quinine oxidoreductase
(QOR2), which catalyzes two-electron reduction of
quinone; but is unlikely to play a major role in
protecting against quinone cytotoxicity. Atypical SDRs
are distinct from classical SDRs. Atypical SDRs include
biliverdin IX beta reductase (BVR-B,aka flavin
reductase), NMRa (a negative transcriptional regulator
of various fungi), progesterone 5-beta-reductase like
proteins, phenylcoumaran benzylic ether and
pinoresinol-lariciresinol reductases, phenylpropene
synthases, eugenol synthase, triphenylmethane reductase,
isoflavone reductases, and others. SDRs are a
functionally diverse family of oxidoreductases that have
a single domain with a structurally conserved Rossmann
fold, an NAD(P)(H)-binding region, and a structurally
diverse C-terminal region. Sequence identity between
different SDR enzymes is typically in the 15-30% range;
they catalyze a wide range of activities including the
metabolism of steroids, cofactors, carbohydrates,
lipids, aromatic compounds, and amino acids, and act in
redox sensing. Classical SDRs have an TGXXX[AG]XG
cofactor binding motif and a YXXXK active site motif,
with the Tyr residue of the active site motif serving as
a critical catalytic residue (Tyr-151, human
15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase numbering). In
addition to the Tyr and Lys, there is often an upstream
Ser and/or an Asn, contributing to the active site;
while substrate binding is in the C-terminal region,
which determines specificity. The standard reaction
mechanism is a 4-pro-S hydride transfer and proton relay
involving the conserved Tyr and Lys, a water molecule
stabilized by Asn, and nicotinamide. In addition to the
Rossmann fold core region typical of all SDRs, extended
SDRs have a less conserved C-terminal extension of
approximately 100 amino acids, and typically have a
TGXXGXXG cofactor binding motif. Complex (multidomain)
SDRs such as ketoreductase domains of fatty acid
synthase have a GGXGXXG NAD(P)-binding motif and an
altered active site motif (YXXXN). Fungal type ketoacyl
reductases have a TGXXXGX(1-2)G NAD(P)-binding motif.

polarized kidney tubule and intestinal epithelial cells,
and in non-polarized cells. It also localizes to

of renal proximal tubule cells and in the apical region
of duodenal epithelial cells. Rab20 has also been shown

significant differences in tissue distribution and
subcellular localization. Rhes is found primarily in the
striatum of the brain, but is also expressed in other
areas of the brain, such as the cerebral cortex,
hippocampus, inferior colliculus, and cerebellum. Rhes
expression is controlled by thyroid hormones. In rat
PC12 cells, Rhes is farnesylated and localizes to the
