Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0)
Predicted to enable guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor activity and small GTPase binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including negative regulation of protein catabolic process; regulation of extracellular matrix constituent secretion; and retrograde transport, endosome to Golgi. Predicted to be located in membrane. Predicted to be part of Ric1-Rgp1 guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor complex. Predicted to be active in Golgi membrane and cytosol. Orthologous to human RIC1 (RIC1 homolog, RAB6A GEF complex partner 1).
