Cumulative Exposure to High γ-Glutamyl Transferase Level and Risk of Diabetes: A Nationwide Population-Based Study [PDF]
Background Elevated γ-glutamyl transferase (γ-GTP) level is associated with metabolic syndrome, impaired glucose tolerance, and insulin resistance, which are risk factors for type 2 diabetes. We aimed to investigate the association of cumulative exposure

Cryo-EM of elongating ribosome with EF-Tu•GTP elucidates tRNA proofreading
Ribosomes accurately decode mRNA by proofreading each aminoacyl-tRNA that is delivered by the elongation factor EF-Tu 1 . To understand the molecular mechanism of this proofreading step it is necessary to visualize GTP-catalysed elongation, which has ...

The speed of GTP hydrolysis determines GTP cap size and controls microtubule stability
Microtubules are cytoskeletal polymers whose function depends on their property to switch between states of growth and shrinkage. Growing microtubules are thought to be stabilized by a GTP cap at their ends.

The chloroplast import receptor Toc34 functions as preprotein-regulated GTPase [PDF]
Toc34 is a protein of the chloroplast outer envelope membrane that acts as receptor for preproteins containing a transit sequence. The recognition of preproteins by Toc34 is regulated by GTP binding and phosphorylation.

Thiopurine drugs are widely used as antileukemic drugs and immunosuppressive agents, and 6-thioguanosine triphosphate ((S)GTP) is a major metabolite for these drugs. Recent studies have suggested that thiopurine drugs may exert their cytotoxic effects partly through binding of (S)GTP to a GTP-binding protein, Rac1.
