RAB3B Gene Summary [Human]
Enables GDP binding activity; GTPase activity; and myosin V binding activity. Involved in several processes, including positive regulation of dopamine uptake involved in synaptic transmission; regulation of synaptic vesicle cycle; and regulation of vesicle size. Located in perinuclear region of cytoplasm and vesicle. Is active in dopaminergic synapse. Is anchored component of synaptic vesicle membrane. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in human RAB3B often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
