Summary: Enables guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor activity. Involved in several processes, including Golgi vesicle transport; macroautophagy; and secretory granule organization. Located in Golgi cis cisterna. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease dominant intermediate A. Orthologous to human GBF1 (golgi brefeldin A resistant guanine nucleotide exchange factor 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

What's a GeneRIF?

Structural basis for activation of Arf1 at the Golgi complex.
Title: Structural basis for activation of Arf1 at the Golgi complex.
results demonstrate that activated Arl1p can promote the spatial modulation of membrane organization at the trans-Golgi network through interacting with the effectors Gea2p and Drs2p
Title: Arl1p regulates spatial membrane organization at the trans-Golgi network through interaction with Arf-GEF Gea2p and flippase Drs2p.
basic residues required for phosphoinositide binding overlap a previously mapped binding site for the ArfGEF Gea2p.
Title: Regulation of a Golgi flippase by phosphoinositides and an ArfGEF.
COPI in these mutants is released from Golgi membranes by brefeldin A, a drug that binds directly to Gea2p and blocks ADP-ribosylation factor activation
Title: Mutations in a highly conserved region of the Arf1p activator GEA2 block anterograde Golgi transport but not COPI recruitment to membranes.
