Function |
Could be a regulatory protein, possibly participating in receptor-mediated signal transduction at the plasma membrane. Has guanine nucleotide-binding activity but undetectable intrinsic GTPase activity.
|
Subcellular Location |
Cell membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Cytoplasmic side.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Most abundant in thymus, spleen, kidney, lung, and testis. Less abundant in heart, brain, liver and skeletal muscle.
