General description

RAB21 is a member of the small GTPase superfamily that is critically important in the recycling of integrin protein receptor complexes and their internalization. Thus, RAB21 is important in cell adhesion and migration of cells, as well as the proper completing of cytokinesis which requires particular care with adherent cells to coordinate the release and recycling of integrin and their release from the ECM matrix during cytokinesis. RAB21 is primarily a cytoplasmic or cytoplasmic organelle localized protein and its precise location will vary with cell cycle and cell division phases. RAB21 is widely expressed particularly in cells in the gut and capillaries where cell division and cell morphological changes are common.
