Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0)
Predicted to enable GTP binding activity; GTPase activity; and protein homodimerization activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to cytokine stimulus; positive regulation of pyroptosis; and response to bacterium. Acts upstream of or within adhesion of symbiont to host and defense response to other organism. Located in cytoplasmic vesicle; cytosol; and symbiont-containing vacuole membrane. Orthologous to human GBP4 (guanylate binding protein 4) and GBP7 (guanylate binding protein 7).
