Rab9 effector protein with Kelch motifs also known as p40 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the RABEPK gene.[1][2]

Membrane-associated p40, in together with RAB9A, facilitates the transport of the mannose 6-phosphate receptor (MPR) from endosomes to the trans-Golgi network.[1]

Interactions

RABEPK has been shown to interact with RAB9A[1] and FYVE finger-containing phosphoinositide kinase.[3]
