Supplementary information

RRAGB also known as Ras-related GTPase B is a member of the Rag family of GTPases. This protein has a molecular mass of approximately 42 kDa. RRAGB is expressed in various tissues with significant expression in the brain and skeletal muscles. The protein functions as a molecular switch toggling between active GTP-bound and inactive GDP-bound states. This cycling allows RRAGB to regulate mTORC1 signaling which is essential for cellular growth and metabolism.
Biological function summary

RRAGB partners with other Rag GTPases to form heterodimeric complexes. These complexes facilitate the proper localization and activation of mTORC1 on the lysosomal membrane. Moreover RRAGB plays a role in amino acid sensing which impacts cellular growth. By responding to intracellular nutrient levels RRAGB helps modulate anabolic processes and energy balance.

Pathways

RRAGB is integral to the mTOR signaling and nutrient-sensing pathways. As a part of these pathways RRAGB collaborates with proteins such as Raptor and Rheb. These interactions ensure efficient transmission of signals that regulate cell growth and metabolism. The accurate function of this network supports cellular adaptation to varying environmental nutrient conditions.

RRAGB has been associated with certain cancers and neurodegenerative diseases. Alterations in the mTOR pathway involving RRAGB can contribute to undesired cellular proliferation observed in cancers. Moreover disruptions in RRAGB activity can influence mTORC1 signaling in neurodegenerative conditions. It's important to further understand how RRAGB and related proteins like mTOR are involved in the pathology of these diseases to develop targeted therapies.

General info

Function

Guanine nucleotide-binding protein that plays a crucial role in the cellular response to amino acid availability through regulation of the mTORC1 signaling cascade (PubMed : 18497260, PubMed : 20381137, PubMed : 23723238, PubMed : 24095279). Forms heterodimeric Rag complexes with RagC/RRAGC or RagD/RRAGD and cycles between an inactive GDP-bound and an active GTP-bound form : RagB/RRAGB is in its active form when GTP-bound RagB/RRAGB forms a complex with GDP-bound RagC/RRAGC (or RagD/RRAGD) and in an inactive form when GDP-bound RagB/RRAGB heterodimerizes with GTP-bound RagC/RRAGC (or RagD/RRAGD) (PubMed : 18497260, PubMed : 20381137, PubMed : 23723238, PubMed : 24095279). In its GTP-bound active form, promotes the recruitment of mTORC1 to the lysosomes and its subsequent activation by the GTPase RHEB (PubMed : 18497260, PubMed : 20381137, PubMed : 23723238). Involved in the RCC1/Ran-GTPase pathway (PubMed : 9394008).
