CDC42-mediated Wnt signaling facilitates odontogenic differentiation of DPCs during tooth root elongation

open access: yesStem Cell Research & Therapy, 2023
Background CDC42 is a member of Rho GTPase family, acting as a molecular switch to regulate cytoskeleton organization and junction maturation of epithelium in organ development.

Rho Family GTPases in Fission Yeast Cytokinesis

open access: yesCommunicative & Integrative Biology, 2019
During cytokinesis, actomyosin ring constriction drives furrow formation. In animal cells, Rho GTPases drive this process through the positioning and assembly of the actomyosin ring, and through extracellular matrix remodeling within the furrow.

Putative cell adhesion membrane protein Vstm5 regulates neuronal morphology and migration in the central nervous system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
During brain development, dynamic changes in neuronal membranes perform critical roles in neuronal morphogenesis and migration to create functional neural circuits.

Cdc42 Couples T Cell Receptor Endocytosis to GRAF1-Mediated Tubular Invaginations of the Plasma Membrane

open access: yesCells, 2019
: T cell activation is immediately followed by internalization of the T cell receptor (TCR). TCR endocytosis is required for T cell activation, but the mechanisms supporting removal of TCR from the cell surface remain incompletely understood.

Parameter identification problems in the modelling of cell motility [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We present a novel parameter identification algorithm for the estimation of parameters in models of cell motility using imaging data of migrating cells.

SPECs, Small Binding Proteins for Cdc42 [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2000
The Rho GTPase, Cdc42, regulates a wide variety of cellular activities including actin polymerization, focal complex assembly, and kinase signaling. We have identified a new family of very small Cdc42-binding proteins, designated SPECs (for Small Protein Effector of Cdc42), that modulates these regulatory activities.

Chronic inflammation evoked by pathogenic stimulus during carcinogenesis

open access: yes4 open, 2019
A pathogenic (biological or chemical) stimulus is the earliest information received by a cell that can result in the disruption of homeostasis with consequent development of disease.

Allosteric Activation of the Par-6 PDZ Via a Partial Unfolding Transition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Proteins exist in a delicate balance between the native and unfolded states, where thermodynamic stability may be sacrificed to attain the flexibility required for efficient catalysis, binding, or allosteric control.

A Rho family GTPase controls actin dynamics and tip growth via two counteracting downstream pathways in pollen tubes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Tip growth in neuronal cells, plant cells, and fungal hyphae is known to require tip-localized Rho GTPase, calcium, and filamentous actin (F-actin), but how they interact with each other is unclear.

The first buds of Cdc42 [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cell Biology, 2015
In 1990, John Pringle and colleagues identified the small GTPase and demonstrated its role in yeast cell polarization.
