Both REP and GDI are considered as Rab molecular chaperones. They have similar organization, in particular, their Rab binding interface which is well conserved. | Both REP and GDI are considered as Rab molecular chaperones.

GDIs have functional specificity for a particular Rab. Both yeast and mammalians GDIs contains specific residues that contribute to the strength of their interaction with distinct Rab species. | GDIs have functional specificity for a particular Rab.
