The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the small GTPase superfamily, Rab family. The protein is membrane-bound and may be involved in protein transport and small GTPase mediated signal transduction. Mutations in this gene are associated with Griscelli syndrome type 2. Alternative splicing occurs at this locus and four transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified. (provided by RefSeq)

The role of the small GTPase RAB27A as an essential melanosome trafficking regulator in melanocytes is well-accepted. A decade ago, RAB27A was identified as a tumor dependency gene that promotes melanoma cell proliferation. RAB27A has since been linked to another
Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are associated with tumor initiation, therapeutic resistance, relapse and metastasis. However, the underlying mechanisms CSCs use to preserve stemness are not yet fully understood. The present study demonstrated that the expression of RAB27A, member RAS oncogene
