The neuropathy-linked protein TECPR2 is a Rab5 effector that regulates cargo recycling from early endosomes [PDF]
Small GTP-binding proteins of the Rab, Arf, and Arf-like family mediate the recruitment of their effectors to subcellular membrane-bound compartments, which in turn mediate vesicle budding, motility, and tethering.

p21ras and several other ras-related GTP-binding proteins are modified post-translationally by addition of 15-carbon farnesyl or 20-carbon geranylgeranyl isoprenoids to cysteines within a conserved carboxyl-terminal sequence motif, Caa(M/S/L), where a is an aliphatic amino acid.

Highly purified lysosomes, prepared by magnetic fractionation of homogenates from Dictyostelium discoideum cells fed colloidal iron, were lysed under hypoosmotic conditions, and the membrane-associated proteins were subjected to gel electrophoresis. Thirteen major membrane polypeptides, ranging in molecular weight from 25,000 to 100,000 were identified.

TBC1D22B Regulates ER-to-Golgi Trafficking via RAB1B Inactivation and Promotes Oncogenic Programs in Breast Cancer. [PDF]
TBC1D22B, a Golgi‐localized RabGAP linked to poor prognosis in breast cancer, inhibits ER‐to‐Golgi transport via RAB1B inactivation. This disrupts secretion, drives oncogenic transcriptional reprogramming, and promotes tumor growth. These findings indicate that TBC1D22B connects membrane trafficking to transcriptional control and cancer progression ...

In a previous study (H. Shirataki, K. Kaibuchi, T. Yamaguchi, K. Wada, H. Horiuchi, and Y. Takai, J. Biol. Chem. 267:10946-10949, 1992), we highly purified from bovine brain crude membranes the putative target protein for smg p25A/rab3A p25, a ras p21-related small GTP-binding protein implicated in neurotransmitter release.

Rab proteins belong to a subfamily of small GTP-binding protein genes of the Ras superfamily and play an important role in intracellular vesicular targeting. The presence of members of this protein family was examined in Caco-2 cells by a PCR-based strategy.

Pathogenic LRRK2 regulates centrosome cohesion via Rab10/RILPL1-mediated CDK5RAP2 displacement
Summary: Mutations in LRRK2 increase its kinase activity and cause Parkinson's disease. LRRK2 phosphorylates a subset of Rab proteins which allows for their binding to RILPL1.

Rab GTPases, tethers, and SNAREs work together to regulate Arabidopsis cell plate formation
Cell plates are transient structures formed by the fusion of vesicles at the center of the dividing plane; furthermore, these are precursors to new cell walls and are essential for cytokinesis.
