Function
The small GTPases Rab are key regulators of intracellular membrane trafficking, from the formation of transport vesicles to their fusion with membranes. Rabs cycle between active GTP-bound and inactive GDP-bound states. In their active state, drive transport of vesicular carriers from donor organelles to acceptor organelles to regulate the membrane traffic that maintains organelle identity and morphology (PubMed:37821429). RAB2A regulates autophagy by promoting autophagosome-lysosome fusion via recruitment of the HOPS endosomal tethering complex; this process involves autophagosomal RAB2A and lysosomal RAB39A recruitment of HOPS subcomplexes VPS39-VPS11 and VPS41-VPS16-VPS18-VPS33A, respectively, which assemble into a functional complex to mediate membrane tethering and SNAREs-driven membrane fusion (PubMed:37821429). Required for protein transport from the endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi complex. Regulates the compacted morphology of the Golgi (PubMed:26209634). Together with RAB2B, redundantly required for efficient autophagic flux (PubMed:28483915)
