Ras Related Glycolysis Inhibitor and Calcium Channel Regulator (RRAD) is a
protein
Proteins are large biomolecules and macromolecules that comprise one or more long chains of amino acid residue (biochemistry), residues. Proteins perform a vast array of functions within organisms, including Enzyme catalysis, catalysing metab ...
that in humans is encoded by the ''RRAD''
gene
In biology, the word gene has two meanings. The Mendelian gene is a basic unit of heredity. The molecular gene is a sequence of nucleotides in DNA that is transcribed to produce a functional RNA. There are two types of molecular genes: protei ...

RRAD is a Ras-related small GTPase that is regulated by
p53
p53, also known as tumor protein p53, cellular tumor antigen p53 (UniProt name), or transformation-related protein 53 (TRP53) is a regulatory transcription factor protein that is often mutated in human cancers. The p53 proteins (originally thou ...
and plays a role in the regulation of aerobic glycolysis.
Interactions
RRAD has been shown to
interact with
CAMK2G and
TPM2
β-Tropomyosin, also known as tropomyosin beta chain is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ''TPM2'' gene. β-tropomyosin is striated muscle-specific coiled coil dimer that functions to stabilize actin filaments and regulate muscle contra ...
