General Comment NCBI Summary: This gene is a member of the human ADP-ribosylation factor (ARF) gene family. These genes encode small guanine nucleotide-binding proteins that stimulate the ADP-ribosyltransferase activity of cholera toxin and play a role in vesicular trafficking and as activators of phospholipase D. The gene products include 6 ARF proteins and 11 ARF-like proteins and constitute 1 family of the RAS superfamily. The ARF proteins are categorized as class I (ARF1, ARF2,and ARF3), class II (ARF4 and ARF5) and class III (ARF6). The members of each class share a common gene organization.

Ovarian function Oocyte maturation
Comment GTPases Arf5 and Arl2 function partially distinctly during oocyte meiosis. Zhou CX et al. (2020) Mammalian female meiosis must be tightly regulated to produce high-quality mature oocytes for subsequent regular fertilization and healthy live birth of the next generation. GTPases control many important signal pathways involved in diverse cellular activities. ADP-ribosylation factor family members (Arfs) in mice possess GTPase activities, and some members have been found to function in meiosis. However, whether other Arfs play a role in meiosis is unknown. In this study, we found that Arl2 and Arf5 are the richest among Arfs in mouse oocytes, and they are more abundant in oocytes than in granular cells. Furthermore, Arl2 and Arf5 depletion both impeded meiotic progression, but by affecting spindles and microfilaments, respectively. Moreover, Arl2 and Arf5 depletion both significantly increased regular reactive oxygen species levels and decreased mitochondrial membrane potential and autophagy, indicating that oocyte quality was damaged by Arl2 and Arf5 depletion. These results suggest that Arl2 and Arf5 are two novel essential GTPases required for oocyte meiosis and quality control.//////////////////
