Effect of vine and fruit pruning on yield attributes of two watermelon (Citrullus lanatus) cultivars

open access: yesAdvances in Horticultural Science, 2021
This study was carried out to determine the effect of vine and fruit pruning on watermelon (Citrullus lanatus) yield. Five pruning methods: P1=no pruning at all, P2=pruning to four vines with two fruits per vine, P3=pruning to four vines with one fruit ...

Rab GTPase localization and Rab cascades in Golgi transport [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Society Transactions, 2012
Rab GTPases are master regulators of membrane traffic. By binding to distinct sets of effector proteins, Rabs catalyse the formation of function-specifying membrane microdomains. They are delivered to membranes by a protein named GDI (guanine-nucleotide-dissociation inhibitor) and are stabilized there after nucleotide exchange by effector binding.

α1B-adrenergic receptors differentially associate with Rab proteins during homologous and heterologous desensitization. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Internalization of G protein-coupled receptors can be triggered by agonists or by other stimuli. The process begins within seconds of cell activation and contributes to receptor desensitization.

Rabs and axonal regeneration

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2019
Membrane trafficking processes are presumably vital for axonal regeneration after injury, but mechanistic understanding in this regard has been sparse. A recent loss-of-function screen had been carried out for factors important for axonal regeneration by cultured cortical neurons and the results suggested that the activity of a number of Rab GTPases ...

Phosphorylation of small GTPase Rab proteins from Bombyx mori (Lepidoptera: Bombycidae)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2009
Small GTPases of the Rab family act as essential regulators of vesicle transport pathways. Five Rab cDNA clones (BRab1, 7, 8, 11 and 14) from Bombyx mori were expressed in Escherichia coli as a thioredxin or glutathione sulfotransferase fusion protein ...

Roles of membrane trafficking in plant cell wall dynamics

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2015
The cell wall is one of the characteristic components of plant cells. The cell wall composition differs among cell types and is modified in response to various environmental conditions.

RAB-6.1 and RAB-6.2 Promote Retrograde Transport in C. elegans. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Retrograde transport is a critical mechanism for recycling certain membrane cargo. Following endocytosis from the plasma membrane, retrograde cargo is moved from early endosomes to Golgi followed by transport (recycling) back to the plasma membrane.

The puzzle of chloroplast vesicle transport – involvement of GTPases

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2014
In the cytosol of plant cells vesicle transport occurs via secretory pathways among the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) network, Golgi bodies, secretory granules, endosome and plasma membrane.

Rab Family of GTPases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Rab proteins represent the largest branch of the Ras-like small GTPase superfamily and there are 66 Rab genes in the human genome. They alternate between GTP- and GDP-bound states, which are facilitated by guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) and GTPase-activating proteins (GAPs), and function as molecular switches in regulation of intracellular ...

C9orf72’s interaction with Rab GTPases - modulation of membrane traffic and autophagy

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2016
Hexanucleotide repeat expansion in an intron of Chromosome 9 open reading frame 72 (C9orf72) is the most common genetic cause of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) and Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD).
