[1] ADP-ribosylation factors (ARFs) are small guanine nucleotide-binding proteins that enhance the enzymatic activities of phospholipase D (GEM:03q2/PLD1) and cholera toxin ADP-ribosyltransferase. ARFs are essential and ubiquitous in eukaryotes, being involved in vesicular transport. The functions of ARF proteins in membrane traffic and organelle integrity are intimately tied to their reversible association with membranes and specific interactions with membrane phospholipids. A common feature of these functions is their regulation by the binding and hydrolysis of GTP (Amor-1994).
[2] ARFs constitute 1 family of the RAS superfamily. Monomeric guanine nucleotide-binding proteins of the RAS superfamily function in a variety of cellular processes including signaling, growth, immunity, and protein transport."
