Cytoplasm {Experimental EvidencePubMed:17266443}. Nucleus {Experimental EvidencePubMed:17266443}. Cytoplasm, perinuclear region {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21151871}. Golgi apparatus membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21151871}. Note=Heterodimers with GBP1, GBP2 and GBP5 localize in the compartment of the prenylated GBPs: with GBP1 in a vesicle-like compartment, with GBP2, around the nucleus and with GBP-5, at the Golgi apparatus. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21151871}.
Binds GTP, GDP and GMP. Hydrolyzes GTP very efficiently; GDP rather than GMP is the major reaction product. Plays a role in erythroid differentiation (By similarity). {By
