>gnl|CDD|206715 cd04148, RGK, Rem, Rem2, Rad, Gem/Kir (RGK) subfamily of Ras
           GTPases.  RGK subfamily. The RGK (Rem, Rem2, Rad,
           Gem/Kir) subfamily of Ras GTPases are expressed in a
           tissue-specific manner and are dynamically regulated by
           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
           calcium-dependent secretion or modulation of electrical
           conduction and contractile function. Inhibition of
           L-type calcium channels by Rem2 may provide a mechanism
           for modulating calcium-triggered exocytosis in
           hormone-secreting cells, and has been proposed to
           influence the secretion of insulin in pancreatic beta
           cells. RGK proteins also interact with and inhibit the
           Rho/Rho kinase pathway to modulate remodeling of the
           cytoskeleton. Two characteristics of RGK proteins cited
           in the literature are N-terminal and C-terminal
           extensions beyond the GTPase domain typical of Ras
           superfamily members. The N-terminal extension is not
           conserved among family members; the C-terminal extension
           is reported to be conserved among the family and lack
           the CaaX prenylation motif typical of
           membrane-associated Ras proteins. However, a putative
           CaaX motif has been identified in the alignment of the
           C-terminal residues of this CD.

>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
           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 the presence of truncated sequences in this CD,
           the lipid modification site is not available for
           annotation.

>gnl|CDD|206712 cd04141, Rit_Rin_Ric, Ras-like protein in all tissues (Rit),
           Ras-like protein in neurons (Rin) and Ras-related
           protein which interacts with calmodulin (Ric).  Rit
           (Ras-like protein in all tissues), Rin (Ras-like protein
           in neurons) and Ric (Ras-related protein which interacts
           with calmodulin) form a subfamily with several unique
           structural and functional characteristics. These
           proteins all lack a the C-terminal CaaX lipid-binding
           motif typical of Ras family proteins, and Rin and Ric
           contain calmodulin-binding domains. Rin, which is
           expressed only in neurons, induces neurite outgrowth in
           rat pheochromocytoma cells through its association with
           calmodulin and its activation of endogenous Rac/cdc42.
           Rit, which is ubiquitously expressed in mammals,
           inhibits growth-factor withdrawl-mediated apoptosis and
           induces neurite extension in pheochromocytoma cells. Rit
           and Rin are both able to form a ternary complex with
           PAR6, a cell polarity-regulating protein, and Rac/cdc42.
           This ternary complex is proposed to have physiological
           function in processes such as tumorigenesis. Activated
           Ric is likely to signal in parallel with the Ras pathway
           or stimulate the Ras pathway at some upstream point, and
           binding of calmodulin to Ric may negatively regulate Ric
           activity.

>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
           membrane attachment, a key feature of most Ras proteins.

>gnl|CDD|206708 cd04136, Rap_like, Rap-like family consists of Rap1, Rap2 and RSR1.
            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
           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

>gnl|CDD|133376 cd04176, Rap2, Rap2 family GTPase consists of Rap2a, Rap2b, and
           Rap2c.  The Rap2 subgroup is part of the Rap subfamily
           of the Ras family. It consists of Rap2a, Rap2b, and
           Rap2c. Both isoform 3 of the human mitogen-activated
           protein kinase kinase kinase kinase 4 (MAP4K4) and
           Traf2- and Nck-interacting kinase (TNIK) are putative
           effectors of Rap2 in mediating the activation of c-Jun
           N-terminal kinase (JNK) to regulate the actin
           cytoskeleton. In human platelets, Rap2 was shown to
           interact with the cytoskeleton by binding the actin
           filaments. In embryonic Xenopus development, Rap2 is
           necessary for the Wnt/beta-catenin signaling pathway.
           The Rap2 interacting protein 9 (RPIP9) is highly
           expressed in human breast carcinomas and correlates with
           a poor prognosis, suggesting a role for Rap2 in breast
           cancer oncogenesis. Rap2b, but not Rap2a, Rap2c, Rap1a,
           or Rap1b, is expressed in human red blood cells, where
           it is believed to be involved in vesiculation. A number
           of additional effector proteins for Rap2 have been
           identified, including the RalGEFs RalGDS, RGL, and Rlf,

           Growth inhibitor (RERG) and Ras-like 11 (RasL11)-like
           families.  RERG (Ras-related and Estrogen- Regulated
           Growth inhibitor) and Ras-like 11 are members of a novel
           subfamily of Ras that were identified based on their
           behavior in breast and prostate tumors, respectively.
           RERG expression was decreased or lost in a significant
           fraction of primary human breast tumors that lack
           estrogen receptor and are correlated with poor clinical
           prognosis. Elevated RERG expression correlated with
           favorable patient outcome in a breast tumor subtype that
           is positive for estrogen receptor expression. In
           contrast to most Ras proteins, RERG overexpression
           inhibited the growth of breast tumor cells in vitro and
           in vivo. RasL11 was found to be ubiquitously expressed
           in human tissue, but down-regulated in prostate tumors.

>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.

>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
           feature of most Ras proteins. Due to the presence of

           site is not available for annotation.

           (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

           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

           fungi. In budding yeasts, RSR1 is involved in selecting
           a site for bud growth on the cell cortex, which directs
           the establishment of cell polarization. The Rho family
           GTPase cdc42 and its GEF, cdc24, then establish an axis
           of polarized growth by organizing the actin cytoskeleton
           and secretory apparatus at the bud site. It is believed
           that cdc42 interacts directly with RSR1 in vivo. In
           filamentous fungi, polar growth occurs at the tips of
           hypha and at novel growth sites along the extending
           hypha. In Ashbya gossypii, RSR1 is a key regulator of

           function of Rab21 are not clearly defined, with
           conflicting data reported. Rab21 has been reported to
           localize in the ER in human intestinal epithelial cells,
           with partial colocalization with alpha-glucosidase, a
           late endosomal/lysosomal marker. More recently, Rab21
           was shown to colocalize with and affect the morphology
           of early endosomes. In Dictyostelium, GTP-bound Rab21,
           together with two novel LIM domain proteins, LimF and
           ChLim, has been shown to regulate phagocytosis. 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

           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

           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.

           are closely related, evolutionary conserved Rab proteins

           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

           isoform, Rab27b. Unlike most Rab proteins whose
           functions remain poorly defined, Rab27a has many known
           functions. Rab27a has multiple effector proteins, and
           depending on which effector it binds, Rab27a has
           different functions as well as tissue distribution
           and/or cellular localization. Putative functions have
           been assigned to Rab27a when associated with the

           Noc2, JFC1, and Munc13-4. Rab27a has been associated
           with several human diseases, including hemophagocytic
           syndrome (Griscelli syndrome or GS), Hermansky-Pudlak
           syndrome, and choroidermia. In the case of GS, a rare,
           autosomal recessive disease, a Rab27a mutation is
           directly responsible for the disorder. When Rab27a is
           localized to the secretory granules of pancreatic beta
           cells, it is believed to mediate glucose-stimulated
           insulin secretion, making it a potential target for
           diabetes therapy. When bound to JFC1 in prostate cells,
           Rab27a is believed to regulate the exocytosis of
           prostate- specific markers. GTPase activating proteins

           has been implicated in numerous functions within the
           cell. It helps regulate endocytosis through the sorting,
           recycling, and degradation of early endosomes. Mammalian
           Rab4 is involved in the regulation of many surface
           proteins including G-protein-coupled receptors,
           transferrin receptor, integrins, and surfactant protein
           A. Experimental data implicate Rab4 in regulation of the
           recycling of internalized receptors back to the plasma
           membrane. It is also believed to influence
           receptor-mediated antigen processing in B-lymphocytes,
           in calcium-dependent exocytosis in platelets, in
           alpha-amylase secretion in pancreatic cells, and in
           insulin-induced translocation of Glut4 from internal
           vesicles to the cell surface. Rab4 is known to share
           effector proteins with Rab5 and Rab11. 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

           Rab3D.  The Rab3 subfamily contains Rab3A, Rab3B, Rab3C,
           and Rab3D. All four isoforms were found in mouse brain
           and endocrine tissues, with varying levels of
           expression. Rab3A, Rab3B, and Rab3C localized to
           synaptic and secretory vesicles; Rab3D was expressed at
           high levels only in adipose tissue, exocrine glands, and
           the endocrine pituitary, where it is localized to
           cytoplasmic secretory granules. Rab3 appears to control
           Ca2+-regulated exocytosis. The appropriate GDP/GTP
           exchange cycle of Rab3A is required for Ca2+-regulated
           exocytosis to occur, and interaction of the GTP-bound
           form of Rab3A with effector molecule(s) is widely
           believed to be essential for this process. Functionally,
           most studies point toward a role for Rab3 in the
           secretion of hormones and neurotransmitters. GTPase
           activating proteins (GAPs) interact with GTP-bound Rab

           GTPases consists of several families with an extremely
           high degree of structural and functional similarity. The
           Ras superfamily is divided into at least four families
           in eukaryotes: the Ras, Rho, Rab, and Sar1/Arf families.
           This superfamily also includes proteins like the GTP
           translation factors, Era-like GTPases, and G-alpha chain
           of the heterotrimeric G proteins. Members of the Ras
           superfamily regulate a wide variety of cellular
           functions: the Ras family regulates gene expression, the
           Rho family regulates cytoskeletal reorganization and
           gene expression, the Rab and Sar1/Arf families regulate
           vesicle trafficking, and the Ran family regulates

           release in translation, and the Era-like GTPase family
           regulates cell division, sporulation, and DNA
           replication. Members of the Ras superfamily are
           identified by the GTP binding site, which is made up of
           five characteristic sequence motifs, and the switch I
           and switch II regions.

           transformation by Ras in cytokinesis, in focal adhesion
           formation and in the stimulation of stress-activated
           kinase. These various functions are controlled through
           distinct effector proteins and mediated through a
           GTP-binding/GTPase cycle involving three classes of
           regulating proteins: GAPs (GTPase-activating proteins),

           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,
           Slug, and Sox9. Downregulation of Ras-dva also
           interferes with the FGF-8a signaling within the anterior
           ectoderm. 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

           attachment, a key feature of most Ras proteins.

           First identified in maize, Rab28 has been shown to be a
           late embryogenesis-abundant (Lea) protein that is
           regulated by the plant hormone abcisic acid (ABA). In
           Arabidopsis, Rab28 is expressed during embryo
           development and is generally restricted to provascular
           tissues in mature embryos. Unlike maize Rab28, it is not
           ABA-inducible. Characterization of the human Rab28
           homolog revealed two isoforms, which differ by a 95-base
           pair insertion, producing an alternative sequence for
           the 30 amino acids at the C-terminus. The two human
           isoforms are presumably the result of alternative
           splicing. Since they differ at the C-terminus but not in
           the GTP-binding region, they are predicted to be
           targeted to different cellular locations. GTPase

           potential differences in cellular localization and
           function. The Wrch-1 N-terminal extension contains

>gnl|CDD|133343 cd04143, Rhes_like, Ras homolog enriched in striatum (Rhes) and
           activator of G-protein signaling 1 (Dexras1/AGS1).  This
           subfamily includes Rhes (Ras homolog enriched in
           striatum) and Dexras1/AGS1 (activator of G-protein
           signaling 1). These proteins are homologous, but exhibit
           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
           plasma membrane. Rhes binds and activates PI3K, and
           plays a role in coupling serpentine membrane receptors
           with heterotrimeric G-protein signaling. Rhes has
           recently been shown to be reduced under conditions of
           dopamine supersensitivity and may play a role in
           determining dopamine receptor sensitivity. Dexras1/AGS1
           is a dexamethasone-induced Ras protein that is expressed
           primarily in the brain, with low expression levels in
           other tissues. Dexras1 localizes primarily to the
           cytoplasm, and is a critical regulator of the circadian
           master clock to photic and nonphotic input. 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.

>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,

           expressed in mouse tissues and cells, where it is
           localized to the medial Golgi cisternae. It colocalizes
           with alpha-mannose II. Together with the other cisternal
           Rabs, Rab6A and Rab6A', it is believed to regulate the
           Golgi response to stress and is likely a molecular
           target in stress-activated signaling pathways. Rab33A
           (previously known as S10) is expressed primarily in the
           brain and immune system cells. In humans, it is located
           on the X chromosome at Xq26 and its expression is
           down-regulated in tuberculosis patients. Experimental
           evidence suggests that Rab33A is a novel CD8+ T cell
           factor that likely plays a role in tuberculosis disease
           processes. GTPase activating proteins (GAPs) interact
           with GTP-bound Rab and accelerate the hydrolysis of GTP
           to GDP. Guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs)

           translation-related operons. FeoB represents an unusual
           adaptation of GTPases for high-affinity iron (II)
           transport. YihA (EngB) family of GTPases is typified by
           the E. coli YihA, which is an essential protein involved
           in cell division control. Era is characterized by a
           distinct derivative of the KH domain (the pseudo-KH
           domain) which is located C-terminal to the GTPase
           domain. EngA and its orthologs are composed of two
           GTPase domains and, since the sequences of the two
           domains are more similar to each other than to other
           GTPases, it is likely that an ancient gene duplication,
           rather than a fusion of evolutionarily distinct GTPases,
           gave rise to this family.

           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

           variant Rac1b that contains a 19-residue insertion near
           switch II relative to Rac1. While Rac1 is ubiquitously
           expressed, Rac2 and Rac3 are largely restricted to
           hematopoietic and neural tissues respectively. Rac1
           stimulates the formation of actin lamellipodia and
           membrane ruffles. It also plays a role in cell-matrix
           adhesion and cell anoikis. In intestinal epithelial
           cells, Rac1 is an important regulator of migration and
           mediates apoptosis. Rac1 is also essential for
           RhoA-regulated actin stress fiber and focal adhesion
           complex formation. In leukocytes, Rac1 and Rac2 have
           distinct roles in regulating cell morphology, migration,
           and invasion, but are not essential for macrophage
           migration or chemotaxis. Rac3 has biochemical properties
           that are closely related to Rac1, such as effector
           interaction, nucleotide binding, and hydrolysis; Rac2
           has a slower nucleotide association and is more
           efficiently activated by the RacGEF Tiam1. Both Rac1 and
           Rac3 have been implicated in the regulation of cell
           migration and invasion in human metastatic breast
           cancer. Most Rho proteins contain a lipid modification

           amino acid. Lipid binding is essential for membrane
           attachment, a key feature of most Rho proteins. Due to

           lipid modification site is not available for annotation.

>gnl|CDD|219856 pfam08477, Miro, Miro-like protein.  Mitochondrial Rho proteins
           (Miro-1, and Miro-2), are atypical Rho GTPases. They
           have a unique domain organisation, with tandem
           GTP-binding domains and two EF hand domains (pfam00036),
           that may bind calcium. They are also larger than
           classical small GTPases. It has been proposed that they
           are involved in mitochondrial homeostasis and apoptosis.

>gnl|CDD|206752 cd01859, MJ1464, An uncharacterized, circularly permuted subfamily
           of the Ras GTPases.  This family represents archaeal
           GTPase typified by the protein MJ1464 from Methanococcus
           jannaschii. The members of this family show a circular
           permutation of the GTPase signature motifs so that
           C-terminal strands 5, 6, and 7 (strands 6 contain the
           NKxD motif) are relocated to the N terminus.

>gnl|CDD|206685 cd01898, Obg, Obg GTPase.  The Obg nucleotide binding protein
           subfamily has been implicated in stress response,
           chromosome partitioning, replication initiation,
           mycelium development, and sporulation. Obg proteins are
           among a large group of GTP binding proteins conserved
           from bacteria to humans. The E. coli homolog, ObgE is
           believed to function in ribosomal biogenesis. Members of
           the subfamily contain two equally and highly conserved
           domains, a C-terminal GTP binding domain and an
           N-terminal glycine-rich domain.
