    Summary
    Enables GDP binding activity; GTPase activity; and myosin V binding activity. Involved in several processes, including positive regulation of dopamine uptake involved in synaptic transmission; regulation of synaptic vesicle cycle; and regulation of vesicle size. Located in perinuclear region of cytoplasm and vesicle. Is active in dopaminergic synapse and synaptic vesicle membrane. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
