Multifunctional GTPase involved in a variety of cellular processes including gene expression, cell migration, cell proliferation, oncogenic transformation and membrane trafficking. Accomplishes its multiple functions by interacting with distinct downstream effectors. Acts as a GTP sensor for GTP-dependent exocytosis of dense core vesicles. Key regulator of LPAR1 signaling and competes with GRK2 for binding to LPAR1 thus affecting the signaling properties of the receptor. Required for anchorage-independent proliferation of transformed cells (By similarity). The RALA-exocyst complex regulates integrin-dependent membrane raft exocytosis and growth signaling (PubMed:20005108). During mitosis, supports the stabilization and elongation of the intracellular bridge between dividing cells. Cooperates with EXOC2 to recruit other components of the exocyst to the early midbody (By similarity). During mitosis, also controls mitochondrial fission by recruiting to the mitochondrion RALBP1, which mediates the phosphorylation and activation of DNM1L by the mitotic kinase cyclin B-CDK1 (By similarity).

Belongs to the small GTPase superfamily. Ras family.
Prenylation is essential for membrane localization.
RALA also known as Ras-related protein Ral-A or RalA is a small GTPase involved in a variety of cellular processes. It has a molecular mass of approximately 23 kDa. RALA switches between inactive GDP-bound and active GTP-bound states facilitating the transduction of signals within the cell. This protein is found in a range of tissues with expression in the brain lung and kidney being notable. The ability of RALA to shuttle between membrane compartments highlights its mechanical versatility in cellular signaling.
The interaction of RALA with effector proteins drives key processes like vesicle trafficking cytoskeletal dynamics and gene expression. RALA forms part of a signaling complex in its active state that mediates these functions. This protein is vital in the neurotransmitter release ensuring efficient communication between neurons. Additionally RALA impacts cell movement by influencing actin filament organization showing its role in cell motility.
The engagement of RALA in Ral signaling and the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) pathway showcases its importance. In Ral signaling RALA interacts closely with proteins like RalBP1 influencing endocytosis and exocytosis activities. In the PI3K pathway RALA helps regulate cell proliferation and survival showing interactions with proteins such as AKT1. These pathways highlight the integration of RALA into broad signal transduction networks important for cellular homeostasis.
The altered regulation of RALA links it to cancer and neuronal disorders. In cancer the dysregulation of RALA can drive tumorigenesis often acting alongside proteins like KRAS in promoting oncogenic signaling. In neuronal disorders improper functioning of RALA has been associated with synaptic dysfunctions potentially affecting proteins like Synapsin I which are important to synaptic vesicle trafficking. Understanding RALA's role in these contexts helps in developing targeted therapeutic strategies.
