RALA RAS like proto-oncogene A

Gene ID: 5898, updated on 17-Sep-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: RAL; HINCONS

Summary

The product of this gene belongs to the small GTPase superfamily, Ras family of proteins. GTP-binding proteins mediate the transmembrane signaling initiated by the occupancy of certain cell surface receptors. This gene encodes a low molecular mass ras-like GTP-binding protein that shares about 50% similarity with other ras proteins. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
