The gateway to chloroplast: re-defining the function of chloroplast receptor proteins [PDF]
Chloroplast biogenesis often requires a tight orchestration between gene expression (both plastidial and nuclear) and translocation of similar to 3000 nuclear-encoded proteins into the organelle.

Atypical Rho GTPases of the RhoBTB Subfamily: Roles in vesicle trafficking and tumorigenesis [PDF]
RhoBTB proteins constitute a subfamily of atypical Rho GTPases represented in mammals by RhoBTB1, RhoBTB2, and RhoBTB3. Their characteristic feature is a carboxyl terminal extension that harbors two BTB domains capable of assembling cullin 3-dependent ...

Reciprocal regulation of PKA and rac signaling [PDF]
Activated G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and receptor tyrosine kinases relay extracellular signals through spatial and temporal controlled kinase and GTPase entities.

Ran is a nuclear Ras-like GTPase that is required for the bidirectional transport of proteins and ribnucleoproteins across the nuclear pore complex (NPC). A key regulator of the Ran GTP/GDP cycle is the 70-kD Ran-GTPase-activating protein RanGAP1.

Coordination of Rho GTPase activities during cell protrusion
The GTPases Rac1, RhoA and Cdc42 act together to control cytoskeleton dynamics. Recent biosensor studies have shown that all three GTPases are activated at the front of migrating cells, and biochemical evidence suggests that they may regulate one another:

DNM1 encephalopathy: A new disease of vesicle fission. [PDF]
ObjectiveTo evaluate the phenotypic spectrum caused by mutations in dynamin 1 (DNM1), encoding the presynaptic protein DNM1, and to investigate possible genotype-phenotype correlations and predicted functional consequences based on structural modeling ...

GAP activity, but not subcellular targeting, is required for Arabidopsis RanGAP cellular and developmental functions [PDF]
The Ran GTPase activating protein (RanGAP) is important to Ran signaling involved in nucleocytoplasmic transport, spindle organization, and postmitotic nuclear assembly.

Modules in the photoreceptor RGS9-1•Gβ5L GTPase-accelerating protein complex control effector coupling, GTPase acceleration, protein folding, and stability [PDF]
RGS (regulators of G protein signaling proteins regulate G protein signaling by accelerating GTP hydrolysis, but little is known about regulation of GTPase-accelerating protein (GAP) activities or roles of domains and subunits outside the catalytic cores.
