Ras-related protein SEC4; Rab family GTPase; essential for vesicle-mediated exocytic secretion and autophagy; associates with the exocyst component Sec15p and may regulate polarized delivery of transport vesicles to the exocyst at the plasma membrane.

GTP-binding protein YPT1; Rab family GTPase; involved in the ER-to-Golgi step of the secretory pathway; complex formation with the Rab escort protein Mrs6p is required for prenylation of Ypt1p by type II protein geranylgeranyltransferase (Bet2p-Bet4p); binds to unspliced HAC1 mRNA; regulates the unfolded protein response (UPR) by promoting the decay of HAC1 RNA; localizes to the early Golgi, the transitional Golgi and ER membranes, pre-autophagosomal structures, and cytoplasmic vesicles.

Rab family GTPase; GTP-binding protein of the rab family; required for homotypic fusion event in vacuole inheritance, for endosome-endosome fusion; localizes to sites of contact between the vacuole and mitochondria (vCLAMPs); interacts with the cargo selection/retromer complex for retrograde sorting; similar to mammalian Rab7.

GTP-binding protein YPT6; Rab family GTPase; required for endosome-to-Golgii, intra-Golgi retrograde, and retrograde Golgi-to-ER transport; temporarily at the Golgi, dissociating into the cytosol on arrival of the late Golgi GTPase Ypt32p; Golgi-localized form is GTP bound, while cytosolic form is GDP-bound; required for delivery of Atg9p to the phagophore assembly site during autophagy under heat stress, with Ypt6p for starvation induced autophagy and for the CVT pathway; homolog of mammalian Rab6.

Rab family GTP-binding protein; contains the PEST signal sequence specific for proteolytic enzymes; may be involved in vesicular transport; overexpression leads to accumulation of Golgi-like cisternae with budding vesicles.

GTP-binding protein YPT52; Endosomal Rab family GTPase; required for vacuolar protein sorting, endocytosis and multivesicular body (MVB) biogenesis and sorting; required for localization of the CORVET complex to endosomes; involved in autophagy and ionic stress tolerance; similar to Vps21p and Ypt53p; mammalian Rab5 homolog; protein abundance increases in response to DNA replication stress.

Vacuolar protein sorting-associated protein 21; Endosomal Rab family GTPase; required for endocytic transport and sorting of vacuolar hydrolases; required for endosomal localization of the CORVET complex; required with YPT52 for MVB biogenesis and sorting; involved in autophagy and ionic stress tolerance; geranylgeranylation required for membrane association; protein abundance increases in response to DNA replication stress; mammalian Rab5 homolog; VPS21 has a paralog, YPT53, that arose from the whole genome duplication.

Rho GDP dissociation inhibitor; involved in the localization and regulation of Cdc42p and Rho1p; protein abundance increases in response to DNA replication stress.

GTP-binding protein YPT32/YPT11; Rab family GTPase involved in the exocytic pathway; mediates intra-Golgi traffic or the budding of post-Golgi vesicles from the trans-Golgi; protein abundance increases in response to DNA replication stress; YPT32 has a paralog, YPT31, that arose from the whole genome duplication.
