Summary: Enables Rab geranylgeranyltransferase activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including detection of mechanical stimulus involved in sensory perception of sound; eye development; and iridophore differentiation. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Predicted to be part of Rab-protein geranylgeranyltransferase complex. Predicted to be active in cytosol and nucleus. Used to study choroideremia. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in asthma and choroideremia. Orthologous to several human genes including CHM (CHM Rab escort protein). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

REP1 deficiency causes systemic dysfunction of lipid metabolism and oxidative stress in choroideremia.
Title: REP1 deficiency causes systemic dysfunction of lipid metabolism and oxidative stress in choroideremia.
In Choroideremia(Y42X/y) fibroblasts, there was a recovery of prenylation activity following treatment with either PTC124 (42 +/- 5%) or PTC-414 (36 +/- 11%), although an increase in REP1 protein was not detected in these cells, in contrast to the zebrafish model.
Title: Functional rescue of REP1 following treatment with PTC124 and novel derivative PTC-414 in human choroideremia fibroblasts and the nonsense-mediated zebrafish model.
The results of this study propose that in chm(-/-) zebrafish, maternally derived rep allows initial successful development of the embryo, but its gradual loss leads to multisystem disease and invariably to lethality.
Title: Single choroideremia gene in nonmammalian vertebrates explains early embryonic lethality of the zebrafish model of choroideremia.
The degenerative phenotype resulting from a null mutation in the zebrafish gene indicates that hair cells and retinal cells require Rab escort protein 1 for survival.
Title: Mutation of the zebrafish choroideremia gene encoding Rab escort protein 1 devastates hair cells.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
