Crystal structure of human Rab18 in complex with Gppnhp

Disease

[RAB18_HUMAN] Defects in RAB18 are the cause of Warburg micro syndrome type 3 (WARBM3) [MIM:614222]. WARBM3 is a rare syndrome characterized by microcephaly, microphthalmia, microcornia, congenital cataracts, optic atrophy, cortical dysplasia, in particular corpus callosum hypoplasia, severe mental retardation, spastic diplegia, and hypogonadism.^[1]

Function

[RAB18_HUMAN] Plays a role in apical endocytosis/recycling. May be implicated in transport between the plasma membrane and early endosomes. Plays a key role in eye and brain development and neurodegeneration.^[2]
