RAB27A, Official Symbol RAB27Aprovided by HGNC Official Full Name RAB27A, member RAS oncogene familyprovided by HGNC Primary source HGNC:HGNC:9766 See related Ensembl:ENSG00000069974 MIM:603868; AllianceGenome:HGNC:9766 Gene type protein coding RefSeq status REVIEWED Organism Homo sapiens Lineage Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo Also known as GS2; RAM; RAB27; HsT18676 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.
