Exocyst complex component 5 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the EXOC5 gene. [5] [6]
The protein encoded by this gene is a component of the exocyst complex, a multiple protein complex essential for targeting exocytic vesicles to specific docking sites on the plasma membrane. Though best characterized in yeast, the component proteins and functions of exocyst complex have been demonstrated to be highly conserved in higher eukaryotes. At least eight components of the exocyst complex, including this protein, are found to interact with the actin cytoskeletal remodeling and vesicle transport machinery. The complex is also essential for the biogenesis of epithelial cell surface polarity. [6]
ADP-ribosylation factor 6 (ARF6) is a member of the ADP ribosylation factor family of GTP-binding proteins. ARF6 has a variety of cellular functions that are frequently involved in trafficking of biological membranes and transmembrane protein cargo. ARF6 has specifically been implicated in endocytosis of plasma membrane proteins and also, to a lesser extent, plasma membrane protein recycling.
The exocyst is an octameric protein complex involved in vesicle trafficking, specifically the tethering and spatial targeting of post-Golgi vesicles to the plasma membrane prior to vesicle fusion. It is implicated in a number of cell processes, including exocytosis, cell migration, and growth.
MHC Class II molecules are a class of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules normally found only on professional antigen-presenting cells such as dendritic cells, mononuclear phagocytes, some endothelial cells, thymic epithelial cells, and B cells. These cells are important in initiating immune responses.
AP-2 complex subunit mu is a protein that in humans is encoded by the AP2M1 gene.
Coatomer subunit beta is a protein that in humans is encoded by the COPB1 gene.
AP-2 complex subunit alpha-1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the AP2A1 gene.
Ras-related protein Ral-A (RalA) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the RALA gene on chromosome 7. This protein is one of two paralogs of the Ral protein, the other being RalB, and part of the Ras GTPase family. RalA functions as a molecular switch to activate a number of biological processes, majorly cell division and transport, via signaling pathways. Its biological role thus implicates it in many cancers.
RalA-binding protein 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the RALBP1 gene.
Exocyst complex component 4 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the EXOC4 gene.
Vesicle-associated membrane protein 3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the VAMP3 gene.
Exocyst complex component 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the EXOC2 gene.
Ras-related protein Ral-B (RalB) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the RALB gene on chromosome 2. This protein is one of two paralogs of the Ral protein, the other being RalA, and part of the Ras GTPase family. RalA functions as a molecular switch to activate a number of biological processes, majorly cell division and transport, via signaling pathways. Its biological role thus implicates it in many cancers.
Exocyst complex component 7 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the EXOC7 gene. It was formerly known as Exo70.
Exocyst complex component 3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the EXOC3 gene.
Arf-GAP with SH3 domain, ANK repeat and PH domain-containing protein 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ASAP2 gene.
AP-2 complex subunit sigma is a protein that in humans is encoded by the AP2S1 gene.
Exocyst complex component 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the EXOC1 gene.
RalBP1-associated Eps domain-containing protein 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the REPS2 gene.
Exocyst complex component 8 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the EXOC8 gene.
Exocyst complex component 6 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the EXOC6 gene.
