Summary

This gene encodes a member of the Ras superfamily of GTPases. Members of the gene family cycle between inactive GDP-bound and active GTP-bound forms. This small GTPase controls vesicle traffic from the endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi apparatus. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been identified for this gene which encode different protein isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

Forensic Context

A study in mice demonstrated that the RAB1A was down-regulated in brain tissue at 8 hours (0.444-fold) and 24 hours (0.395-fold) following whole-body irradiation with 10 Gy γ-rays, as identified through microarray analysis and validated by real-time quantitative RT-PCR [Zhao et al. DOI:10.1158/1078-0432.CCR-05-2418].
