Gene Summary

Predicted to enable GTPase activity. Involved in several processes, including endocytosis; endosomal transport; and vesicle fusion. Located in cell cortex and late endosome membrane. Is active in phagocytic vesicle. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; glial cell; imaginal disc; mushroom body; and synaptic neuropil domain. Used to study Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2B. Orthologous to human RAB7A (RAB7A, member RAS oncogene family).
