Abstract

Arf-like (Arl) GTPases belong to the Ras superfamily of small GTPases with nearly 20 known members. As the name suggests, Arl GTPases were identified as proteins having a structure similar to ADP ribosylation factor (Arf) GTP-binding proteins. Despite having structurally resemblance to Arfs, Arl family members exhibit amazing diversity in mediating different cellular functions which makes them an attractive class of GTPases to study. Some of the examples include Arl3, Arl6 and Arl13b that are reported to be important for cilia biogenesis; Arl1 and Arl8 regulate the membrane trafficking pathways in cells; Arl11, a previously characterized tumor suppressor gene, is recently shown to be important for macrophage upon pathogen encounter. This review focuses on the known functions of Arl GTPases but there still remains a large gap in our understanding of how these Arls are regulated as well as the function of several Arl GTPases remains unknown.
