ID:RAD_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=GTP-binding protein RAD; AltName: Full=RAD1; AltName: Full=Ras associated with diabetes; FUNCTION: May play an important role in cardiac antiarrhythmia via the strong suppression of voltage-gated L-type Ca(2+) currents. Regulates voltage-dependent L-type calcium channel subunit alpha- 1C trafficking to the cell membrane (By similarity). Inhibits cardiac hypertrophy through the calmodulin-dependent kinase II (CaMKII) pathway. Inhibits phosphorylation and activation of CAMK2D. SUBUNIT: Interacts with calmodulin preferentially in the inactive, GDP-bound form. Binds CAMKII which is capable of phosphorylating RAD in vitro. Interacts with CAMK2D and CACNB2. Interaction with CACNB2 regulates the trafficking of CACNA1C to the cell membrane (By similarity). INTERACTION: O95273:CCNDBP1; NbExp=5; IntAct=EBI-3911502, EBI-748961; SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell membrane (By similarity). TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Most abundantly expressed in the heart. Also found in the skeletal muscle and lung. Lesser amounts in placenta and kidney. Also detected in adipose tissue. Overexpressed in muscle of type II diabetic humans. INDUCTION: Down-regulated in failing hearts. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the small GTPase superfamily. RGK family.
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
