Function | The RIC1-RGP1 complex acts as a guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF), which activates RAB6A by exchanging bound GDP for free GTP and may thereby required for efficient fusion of endosome-derived vesicles with the Golgi compartment. The RIC1-RGP1 complex participates in the recycling of mannose-6-phosphate receptors. |
Cellular Location | Cytoplasm, cytosol. Membrane |

Background
RGP1 Antibody: Retrograde golgi transport homolog 1 (RGP1) is the mammalian homolog to the yeast RGP1, a protein that forms a tight complex with RIC1. This complex binds Ypt6p and stimulates guanine nucleotide exchange. RGP1 is localized to the Golgi and is thought to be a potential Golgi recycling factor. Rgp1 yeast mutants exhibit defects in retrograde trafficking similar to those seen in yeast with mutations in other retrograde Golgi transport proteins. It is expected that RGP1 plays a similar role in mammalian cells to that seen in yeast.
