Facts about Ran guanine nucleotide release factor.
Regulates the levels of GTP-bound RAN from the nucleus, and thus plays a role in the regulation of RAN-dependent mitotic spindle dynamics (PubMed:29040603). Enhances the expression of SCN5A in the cell membrane in cardiomyocytes (PubMed:18184654, PubMed:23420830, PubMed:21621375).
