Rab39b Gene Summary [Mouse]
This gene encodes a member of the Ras-related small GTPases, which regulate membrane trafficking in organelles and transport vesicles. This protein has been reported to be enriched in mouse brain, and specifically within neurons, and may play a role in synapse formation. In humans mutations in this gene are associated with X-linked cognitive disability. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2013]

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 mouse Rab39b often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
