Tissue Specificity | Produced abundantly in a wide variety of cell types. |
Function | RAB5A effector molecule that is involved in vesicular trafficking of early endosomes. Mediates the recruitment of HTT by RAB5A onto early endosomes. The HTT-F8A1/F8A2/F8A3-RAB5A complex stimulates early endosomal interaction with actin filaments and inhibits interaction with microtubules, leading to the reduction of endosome motility. |
