Spatio-temporal co-ordination of RhoA, Rac1 and Cdc42 activation during prototypical edge protrusion and retraction dynamics

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2016
The three canonical Rho GTPases RhoA, Rac1 and Cdc42 co-ordinate cytoskeletal dynamics. Recent studies indicate that all three Rho GTPases are activated at the leading edge of motile fibroblasts, where their activity fluctuates at subminute time and ...

Myelination: all about Rac n roll. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
During the development of the peripheral nervous system, Schwann cells select individual axons from a nerve bundle and establish a one-to-one relationship through a process termed radial sorting. Recent findings identify the Rho family GTPase Rac1 as the

Cell cycle entry triggers a switch between two modes of Cdc42 activation during yeast polarization

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2017
Cell polarization underlies many cellular and organismal functions. The GTPase Cdc42 orchestrates polarization in many contexts. In budding yeast, polarization is associated with a focus of Cdc42•GTP which is thought to self sustain by recruiting a ...

miR-29a/b/c function as invasion suppressors for gliomas by targeting CDC42 and predict the prognosis of patients

open access: yesBritish Journal of Cancer, 2017
Background:The lethality and poor outcome of high-grade gliomas result from the tumour relentless invasion. miR-29a/b/c downexpressions contribute to several human tumourigenesis.

Limiting lumens: a new role for Cdc42 [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Cell Biology, 2008
The formation of a single lumen is a necessary step in the formation of biological tubes. Different tissues have developed diverse ways to form their lumens. In this issue, Jaffe et al. (Jaffe, A.B., N. Kaji, J. Durgan, and A. Hall. 2008. J. Cell Biol. 183:625–633) report the development of an in vitro system for studying lumen formation that is driven

A Cdc42/RhoA regulatory circuit downstream of glycoprotein Ib guides transendothelial platelet biogenesis

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Blood platelets are produced by large bone marrow (BM) precursor cells, megakaryocytes (MKs), which extend cytoplasmic protrusions (proplatelets) into BM sinusoids.

A role for Gic1 and Gic2 in Cdc42 polarization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
AbstractThe 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.

Potential Adaptive Introgression From Dogs in Iberian Grey Wolves (Canis lupus)

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Invading species along with increased anthropogenization may lead to hybridization events between wild species and closely related domesticates. As a consequence, wild species may carry introgressed alleles from domestic species, which is generally assumed to yield adverse effects in wild populations.

Aberrant Polycystin-1 Expression Results in Modification of Activator Protein-1 Activity, whereas Wnt Signaling Remains Unaffected [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Polycystin-1, the polycystic kidney disease 1 gene product, has been implicated in several signaling complexes that are known to regulate essential cellular functions. We investigated the role of polycystin-1 in Wnt signaling and activator protein-1 (
