DESCRIPTION

Also known as RFIP2_HUMAN, RAB11FIP2, KIAA0941. A Rab11 effector binding preferentially phosphatidylinositol 3, 4, 5-trisphosphate (PtdInsP3) and phosphatidic acid (PA) and acting in the regulation of the transport of vesicles from the endosomal recycling compartment (ERC) to the plasma membrane. Involved in insulin granule exocytosis. Also involved in receptor-mediated endocytosis and membrane trafficking of recycling endosomes, probably originating from clathrin-coated vesicles. Required in a complex with MYO5B and RAB11 for the transport of NPC1L1 to the plasma membrane. Also acts as a regulator of cell polarity. Plays an essential role in phagocytosis through a mechanism involving TICAM2, RAC1 and CDC42 Rho GTPases for controlling actin-dynamics. Homooligomerizes in a Rab11-independent manner. Forms a heterooligomeric complex with RAB11FIP4. Interacts with AP2A1, MYO5B, RAB25 and REPS1. Interacts with RAB11A and RAB11B (activated GTP-bound form). Interacts with NPC1L1. Interacts (via NPF motifs) with EHD1 and EHD3. Interacts with TICAM2; this interaction directs RAB11FIP2 to the phagosome (PubMed:30883606).
