SGSM1


Description

The SGSM1 (small G protein signaling modulator 1) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 22.

SGSM1, also known as RUN and TBC1 domain-containing protein 2 (RUTBC2) and nurr1-interacting protein (NuIP), is a protein in humans that is encoded by the SGSM1 gene.

SGSM1 interacts with numerous members of the Rab family, acting as a Rab effector for some and a GTPase activator for others. It promotes GTP hydrolysis by RAB34 and RAB36. SGSM1 likely functions as a GTPase effector with RAB9A and RAB9B, but does not stimulate GTP hydrolysis with these Rab proteins.

SGSM1 is also known as RUTBC2.
