The dynamics of spatio-temporal Rho GTPase signaling: formation of signaling patterns [version 1; referees: 2 approved] [PDF]
F1000Research, 2016 Rho GTPases are crucial signaling molecules that regulate a plethora of biological functions. Traditional biochemical, cell biological, and genetic approaches have founded the basis of Rho GTPase biology.

Miro GTPase domains regulate the assembly of the mitochondrial motor–adaptor complex
Life Science Alliance, 2023 Relocalizing the mitochondrial motor–adaptor protein Miro to peroxisomes and systematically manipulating each GTPase domain reveal the importance of the N-terminal GTPase domain of Miro1 for regulating mitochondrial transport.

A mechanism for the response of KRASG13D expressing colorectal cancers to EGFR inhibitors
Molecular & Cellular Oncology, 2020 Previous analysis of Phase 3 clinical trial data for colorectal cancer patients treated with cetuximab revealed that patients harboring a KRAS mutation did not benefit from treatment.

A highly-sensitive high throughput assay for dynamin's basal GTPase activity. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Clathrin-mediated endocytosis is the major pathway by which cells internalize materials from the external environment. Dynamin, a large multidomain GTPase, is a key regulator of clathrin-mediated endocytosis.

The Impact of the Stringent Response on TRAFAC GTPases and Prokaryotic Ribosome Assembly
Cells, 2019 Many facets of ribosome biogenesis and function, including ribosomal RNA (rRNA) transcription, 70S assembly and protein translation, are negatively impacted upon induction of a nutrient stress-sensing signalling pathway termed the stringent response ...

The roles of GTPase-activating proteins in regulated cell death and tumor immunity
Journal of Hematology & Oncology, 2021 GTPase-activating protein (GAP) is a negative regulator of GTPase protein that is thought to promote the conversion of the active GTPase-GTP form to the GTPase-GDP form.

An HflX-type GTPase from Sulfolobus solfataricus binds to the 50S ribosomal subunit in all nucleotide-bound states [PDF]
, 2011 HflX GTPases are found in all three domains of life, Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukaryotes. HflX from Escherichia coli has been shown to bind to the 50S ribosomal subunit in a nucleotide-dependent manner and this interaction strongly stimulates its GTPase ...
