Species	Drosophila

Comments

Comment type	Description
Developmental Stage	Expressed in the syncytial embryo.
Function	Binds unprenylated Rab proteins, presents it to the catalytic component B, and remains bound to it after the geranylgeranyl transfer reaction. The component A is thought to be regenerated by transferring its prenylated Rab to a protein acceptor (By similarity).
Similarity	Belongs to the Rab GDI family.
Subcellular Location	Cytoplasm, perinuclear region . Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, spindle pole . Note=Coordinated with the cell cycle, located around nuclei during prophase and telophase. Located to spindle poles during metaphase.
