Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** The RABGGTA gene encodes a subunit of the geranylgeranyltransferase complex, which catalyzes the geranylgeranylation of Rab proteins. This post-translational modification is crucial for the proper localization and function of Rab proteins at the plasma membrane. The RABGGTA gene is associated with the following characteristics: * Significantly expressed in germ cells, epithelial cells, and neurons * Involved in protein geranylgeranylation, a post-translational modification essential for Rab protein function * Participates in various cellular processes, including membrane trafficking, cell signaling, and apoptosis * Regulated by TP53, a tumor suppressor protein that controls transcription of cell death genes **Pathways and Functions:** The RABGGTA gene is involved in several cellular pathways, including: * Protein modification process: Geranylgeranylation of Rab proteins * Post-translational protein modification: Geranylgeranylation of Rab proteins * Protein binding: Interaction with other proteins involved in geranylgeranylation * Protein geranylgeranylation: Catalysis of geranylgeranylation of Rab proteins * Rab-protein geranylgeranyltransferase complex: Subunit of the geranylgeranyltransferase complex * Small GTPase binding: Interaction with small GTPases, including Rab proteins * Transcriptional regulation by TP53: Regulation of transcription of cell death genes **Clinical Significance:** The RABGGTA gene has significant implications in various diseases, including: * Cancer: Dysregulation of TP53 and RABGGTA can contribute to cancer development and progression * Neurodegenerative diseases: Impaired geranylgeranylation of Rab proteins can contribute to neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's * Developmental disorders: Abnormal expression of RABGGTA can contribute to developmental disorders, such as neuronal development and differentiation In conclusion, the RABGGTA gene plays a critical role in protein modification and cellular processes, including geranylgeranylation of Rab proteins. Its dysregulation can contribute to various diseases, highlighting the importance of understanding the function and regulation of this gene in maintaining cellular homeostasis.
