Literature associating RAB39B and basal ganglia calcification
RAB39B [ENSP00000358466]
Ras-related protein Rab-39B; Small GTPases Rab involved in autophagy . The small GTPases Rab are key regulators of intracellular membrane trafficking, from the formation of transport vesicles to their fusion with membranes. Rabs cycle between an inactive GDP-bound form and an active GTP-bound form that is able to recruit to membranes different sets of downstream effectors directly responsible for vesicle formation, movement, tethering and fusion . May regulate the homeostasis of SNCA/alpha-synuclein. Together with PICK1 proposed to ensure selectively GRIA2 exit from the endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi and to regulate AMPAR compostion at the post- synapses and thus synaptic transmission (By similarity).
