What pLDDT means and how to read it

Function

Rab effector protein acting as linker between gamma-adaptin, RAB4A and RAB5A. Involved in endocytic membrane fusion and membrane trafficking of recycling endosomes. Involved in KCNH1 channels trafficking to and from the cell membrane (PubMed:22841712). Forms a complex with RABGEF1 that stimulates RABGEF1-mediated nucleotide exchange on RAB5A (PubMed:9323142). Mediates the traffic of PKD1:PKD2 complex from the endoplasmic reticulum through the Golgi to the cilium (By similarity)

Subunit structure

Homodimer when bound to RAB5A (PubMed:15378032). Heterodimer with RABGEF1 (PubMed:11452015, PubMed:9323142). The heterodimer binds RAB4A and RAB5A that have been activated by GTP-binding (PubMed:10698684, PubMed:12773381, PubMed:20098723, PubMed:8521472). Interacts with TSC2 (PubMed:9045618). Interacts with GGA1 (via GAE domain), GGA2 (via GAE domain) and GGA3 (via GAE domain) (PubMed:12505986,…
