GTPase IMAP family member 5 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the GIMAP5gene.[1]
This gene encodes a protein belonging to the GTP-binding superfamily and to the immuno-associated nucleotide (IAN) subfamily of nucleotide-binding proteins. In humans, the IAN subfamily genes are located in a cluster at 7q36.1.[1]
