Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** RALB is a member of the Ras superfamily, characterized by its GTP-binding and GTPase activity domains. This protein is involved in regulating cell growth, differentiation, and survival. Its expression is tightly regulated, with oscillations in intracellular GTP levels influencing its activity. RALB's ability to interact with various proteins, including guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs), GTPase-activating proteins (GAPs), and RalBP1, underscores its complex signaling mechanisms. **Pathways and Functions:** RALB is implicated in numerous signaling pathways, including: 1. **Apoptotic Process:** RALB regulates apoptosis by modulating the activity of pro-apoptotic proteins, such as Bax and Bak. 2. **Cell Cycle Regulation:** RALB influences cell cycle progression by regulating the activity of cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) and the G1/S checkpoint. 3. **Cell Division:** RALB's involvement in cell division is mediated through its interaction with the spindle apparatus and microtubule dynamics. 4. **Cellular Response to Exogenous dsRNA:** RALB plays a role in the innate immune response by regulating the activity of interferon regulatory factors (IRFs). 5. **Extracellular Exosome:** RALB is involved in the regulation of exosome formation and function, influencing cellular communication and waste management. **Clinical Significance:** RALB's dysregulation has been implicated in various diseases, including: 1. **Cancer:** Overexpression of RALB has been observed in several types of cancer, including lung, breast, and colon cancer, suggesting its potential as a therapeutic target. 2. **Immunological Disorders:** RALB's role in regulating immune cell function and apoptosis makes it a potential target for the treatment of autoimmune diseases, such as multiple sclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis. 3. **Neurological Disorders:** RALB's involvement in neuronal survival and apoptosis suggests its potential as a therapeutic target for neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. In conclusion, RALB is a complex protein with far-reaching implications in immunology, cancer, and neurological disorders. Further research is needed to fully elucidate its mechanisms of action and its potential therapeutic applications.
