Gene: RAB27A
Alternate names for this Gene: GS2|HsT18676|RAB27|RAM
Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the small GTPase superfamily, Rab family. The protein is membrane-bound and may be involved in protein transport and small GTPase mediated signal transduction. Mutations in this gene are associated with Griscelli syndrome type 2. Alternative splicing occurs at this locus and four transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified.
Gene is located in Chromosome: 15
Location in Chromosome : 15q21.3
Description of this Gene: RAB27A, member RAS oncogene family
Type of Gene: protein-coding
