UniProt functional annotation for O54924

UniProt code: O54924.

Organism: Rattus norvegicus (Rat).
Taxonomy: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Glires; Rodentia; Myomorpha; Muroidea; Muridae; Murinae; Rattus.
 
Function: Component of the exocyst complex involved in the docking of exocytic vesicles with fusion sites on the plasma membrane.
 
Subunit: The exocyst complex is composed of EXOC1, EXOC2, EXOC3, EXOC4, EXOC5, EXOC6, EXOC7 and EXOC8 (PubMed:9405631, PubMed:12954101). Interacts (via PH domain) with GTP-bound RALA and RALB (By similarity) (PubMed:15920473). Interacts with SH3BP1; required for the localization of both SH3BP1 and the exocyst to the leading edge of migrating cells (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8IYI6, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12954101, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15920473, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9405631}.
Subcellular location: Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12954101}. Cytoplasm, perinuclear region {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12954101}. Cell projection, growth cone {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12954101}. Cell projection {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21658605}. Note=Binds lipids with phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate groups (By similarity). Perinuclear in undifferentiated PC12 cells. Redistributes to growing neurites and growth cones during NGF-induced neuronal differentiation (PubMed:12954101). Localizes at the leading edge of migrating cells (PubMed:21658605). {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12954101, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21658605}.
Similarity: Belongs to the EXO84 family. {ECO:0000305}.
