May regulate the intracellular trafficking of RAN . Promotes guanine nucleotide release from RAN and inhibits binding of new GTP by preventing the binding of the RAN guanine nucleotide exchange factor RCC1 . Regulates the levels of GTP-bound RAN in the nucleus, and thereby plays a role in the regulation of RAN-dependent mitotic spindle dynamics . Enhances the expression of SCN5A at the cell membrane in cardiomyocytes .
Nucleus . Cytoplasm, perinuclear region . Cytoplasm . Cell membrane ; Peripheral membrane protein ; Cytoplasmic side . May shuttle between the nucleus and cytoplasm. .
Isoform 1 and isoform 2 are ubiquitously expressed (PubMed:11290418). Detected in heart and brain (PubMed:21621375).
