High impact information on Rlb1

A gene termed Rlb1 is located nearby and upstream of Ras1, and is oriented in the opposite polarity relative to Ras1 [1].
In addition, a third gene termed Rlc1, is found at a very close proximity downstream to Rlb1 [1].
Rlb1 encodes for a novel, lysine-rich basic protein [1].
Rlb1 is found in the cell membrane of larval midgut epithelial cells [1].

Other interactions of Rlb1

Ras1, the Drosophila homologue of p21, and the Rlb1 protein, are also non-cytoplasmic, membranous proteins [1].
