General annotation (Comments)

Function

Small GTP-binding protein which cycles between an inactive GDP-bound and an active GTP-bound form, and the rate of cycling is regulated by guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEF) and GTPase-activating proteins (GAP). GTP-binding protein that does not act as an allosteric activator of the cholera toxin catalytic subunit. May be involved in transport between a perinuclear compartment and the plasma membrane, apparently linked to the ABCA1-mediated cholesterol secretion pathway. Recruits CYTH1, CYTH2, CYTH3 and CYTH4 to the plasma membrane in the GDP-bound form. Regulates the microtubule-dependent intracellular vesicular transport from early endosome to recycling endosome process. Ref.2 Ref.10 Ref.11

Subunit structure

Interacts with CYTH2. Interacts with alpha tubulin; interaction is independent on the ARL4C GTP or GDP binding status. Ref.10 Ref.11

Subcellular location

Cell projectionfilopodium. Cell membrane. Cytoplasm Ref.2 Ref.10.

Tissue specificity

Expressed in several tumor cell lines (at protein level). Expressed in lung, brain, leukocytes and placenta. Ref.11

Induction

By liver X-receptor/retinoid X receptor agonists or cholesterol loading. Ref.2

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the small GTPase superfamily. Arf family.

Sequence caution

The sequence BAA75473.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Erroneous initiation. Translation N-terminally extended.
