High impact information on Rufy1

  • Furthermore, the expression of Rabip4 leads to the intracellular retention of a recycling molecule, the glucose transporter Glut 1 [1].
  • The coexpression of Rabip4 with active Rab4, but not with inactive Rab4, leads to an enlargement of early endosomes [1].
  • We present evidence that Rabip4 defines a subdomain of early endosomes and that Rabip4 is redistributed to the plasma membrane by insulin [2].
 

Anatomical context of Rufy1

  • We propose that Rabip4, an effector of Rab4, controls early endosomal traffic possibly by activating a backward transport step from recycling to sorting endosomes [1].
