GRAMD2B has four paralogs: GRAMD1A, GRAMD1B, GRAMD1C and GRAMD2A. These proteins are mammalian representatives of the yeast lipid transfer proteins anchored at a membrane contact site (LAM) family.^[7]

GRAMD2B consists of a GRAM ___domain and a transmembrane ___domain anchoring it to the endoplasmic reticulum.^[8][7] Similar to GRAMD2A, GRAMD2B lacks the VASt ___domain found in LAM and GRAMD1 proteins. Its function has not yet been defined, but is likely similar to that of GRAMD2A.
