Description

Ras family GTPase RAS2

Gene Summary

Enables GTP binding activity and GTPase activity. Involved in several processes, including cytoplasm to vacuole targeting by the Cvt pathway; positive regulation of transcription by galactose; and protein localization to bud neck. Located in several cellular components, including endoplasmic reticulum membrane; mitochondrion; and nucleus. Used to study colorectal cancer. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Noonan syndrome 12 and colorectal cancer. Orthologous to human RRAS2 (RAS related 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jun 2025]
