Summary: Enables phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase catalytic subunit binding activity. Involved in cortical actin cytoskeleton organization and positive regulation of autophagosome maturation. Located in early endosome. Is expressed in several structures, including Bolwig organ; adult ensheathing glial cell; brain; imaginal disc; and synaptic neuropil domain. Orthologous to human RAB21 (RAB21, member RAS oncogene family). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]
