Description
ARF5, also known as ADP-ribosylation factor 5, belongs to the small GTPase superfamily, Arf family. Members of this family stimulate the ADP-ribosyltransferase activity of cholera toxin and play a role in vesicular trafficking and as activators of phospholipase D. ARF5 functions as an allosteric activator of the cholera toxin catalytic subunit, an ADP-ribosyltransferase. ARF5 Is involved in protein trafficking. ARF5 may also modulate vesicle budding and uncoating within the Golgi apparatus
