General annotation (Comments)
| Function | Plays a novel and significant role in regulating cell proliferation, survival and death through alternative mRNA splicing. Plays an important regulatory role in physiological cell death, caspase-mediated apoptosis By similarity. Converts GDP-bound inactive form of rab-3 and cab-1 to the GTP-bound active forms. Novel regulator of presynaptic activity that interacts with rab-3 to regulate synaptic vesicle release. Is also a regulator of the cab-1 synaptic transmission pathway. Ref.1 Ref.3 |
| Subunit structure | Interacts with cab-1. Ref.3 |
| Subcellular location | Membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein Potential. |
| Tissue specificity | Expressed in nearly all neurons. Ref.1 |
| Disruption phenotype | Worms exhibit pleiotropic behavioral defects that are suggestive of reduced synaptic transmission. Ref.1 |
| Sequence similarities | Belongs to the MADD family. Contains 1 dDENN domain. Contains 1 death domain. Contains 1 DENN domain. Contains 1 uDENN domain. |
