A role for Gic1 and Gic2 in Cdc42 polarization at elevated temperature. [PDF]
The conserved Rho-family GTPase Cdc42 is a master regulator of polarity establishment in many cell types. Cdc42 becomes activated and concentrated in a region of the cell cortex, and recruits a variety of effector proteins to that site.

Cell division cycle protein 42-driven activation of the MKK3/6-p38 signaling pathway participates in cardiac remodeling in mice [PDF]
Cell division cycle protein 42 (Cdc42) is a member of the Rho GTPase subfamily that serves as a signal mediating factor in cell cycle division, cytoskeleton arrangement, cell polarization, membrane trafficking and signal transduction.

Control of stress-activated Cdc42 dynamics by the MAP kinase Sty1—NDR kinase Orb6 regulatory axis [PDF]
Summary: Cdc42 is a Rho-family GTPase that controls cell polarization from yeast to human cells. In fission yeast, under normal growth conditions, Cdc42-GTP oscillates between cell tips to promote polarized growth.

miRNA-145/miRNA-205 inhibits proliferation and invasion of uveal melanoma cells by targeting NPR1/CDC42 [PDF]
AIM: To investigate the role of microRNA-145 (miRNA-145) and microRNA-205 (miRNA-205) in proliferation and invasion of uveal melanoma (UM) cells. METHODS: The expression level of miRNA-145 and miRNA-205 from samples of UM patients were determined by ...

The small GTPase Cdc42 is critical for cell polarization in eukaryotic cells. In rod-shaped fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe cells, active GTP-bound Cdc42 promotes polarized growth at cell poles, while inactive Cdc42-GDP localizes ubiquitously ...

Gene targeting implicates Cdc42 GTPase in GPVI and non-GPVI mediated platelet filopodia formation, secretion and aggregation. [PDF]
Cdc42 and Rac1, members of the Rho family of small GTPases, play critical roles in actin cytoskeleton regulation. We have shown previously that Rac1 is involved in regulation of platelet secretion and aggregation.

Lipidation of small GTPase Cdc42 as regulator of its physiological and pathophysiological functions
The protein cell division cycle 42 (Cdc42) is a small GTPase of the Rho family regulating a plethora of physiological functions in a tissue, cell and subcellular-specific manner via participating in multiple signaling pathways.

Mate and fuse: how yeast cells do it [PDF]
Many cells are able to orient themselves in a non-uniform environment by responding to localized cues. This leads to a polarized cellular response, where the cell can either grow or move towards the cue source.
