Ras-related protein Ral-B (RalB) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the RALB gene on chromosome 2.
This protein is one of two isoforms of the Ral protein, the other being RalA, and part of the Ras GTPase family.
As a Ras GTPase, RalB functions as a molecular switch that becomes active when bound to GTP and inactive when bound to GDP.
RalB can be activated by RalGEFs and, in turn, activate effectors in signal transduction pathways leading to biological outcomes.
Additionally, Ral proteins have been associated with the progression of several cancers, including bladder cancer and prostate cancer.
While the above functions appear to be shared between the two Ral isoforms, their differential subcellular localizations result in their differing involvement in certain biological processes.
In particular, RalB is more involved in apoptosis and cell motility.
Moreover, RalB specifically interacts with Exo84 to assemble the beclin-1–VPS34 autophagy initiation complex, and with Sec5 to activate the innate immune response via the Tank-binding kinase 1 (TBK1).
