RAC1 P29S regulates PD-L1 expression in melanoma. [PDF]
Whole exome sequencing of cutaneous melanoma has led to the detection of P29 mutations in RAC1 in 5-9% of samples, but the role of RAC1 P29 mutations in melanoma biology remains unclear.

Rac1 S71 Mediates the Interaction between Rac1 and 14-3-3 Proteins
Both 14-3-3 proteins (14-3-3s) and Rho proteins regulate cytoskeleton remodeling and cell migration, which suggests a possible interaction between the signaling pathways regulated by these two groups of proteins.

Rac1 plays a role in CXCL12 but not CCL3-induced chemotaxis and Rac1 GEF inhibitor NSC23766 has off target effects on CXCR4 [PDF]
Cell migration towards a chemotactic stimulus relies on the re-arrangement of the cytoskeleton, which is triggered by activation of small G proteins RhoA, Rac1 and Cdc42, and leads to formation of lamellopodia and actin polymerisa ...

Ezrin-related phosphoinositide pathway modifies RhoA and Rac1 in human osteosarcoma cell lines [PDF]
Selected Phosphoinositide-specific Phospholipase C (PI-PLC) enzymes occupy the convergence point of the broad range of pathways that promote Rho and Ras GTPase mediated signalling, which also regulate the activation of ezrin, a member of the ezrin ...

Paxillin facilitates timely neurite initiation on soft-substrate environments by interacting with the endocytic machinery. [PDF]
Neurite initiation is the first step in neuronal development and occurs spontaneously in soft tissue environments. Although the mechanisms regulating the morphology of migratory cells on rigid substrates in cell culture are widely known, how soft ...

Identification of Human Proteins vulnerable to multiple Organisms and their disease associations [PDF]
While most studies emphasize on certain aspects of Pathogen-Host Interactions (PHI), such as the preferential attachment of bacteria or virus to its human receptor homolog, studies have attempted to methodically classify interactions among pathogenic proteins and their host proteins.

Coronin-1C Protein and Caveolin Protein Provide Constitutive and Inducible Mechanisms of Rac1 Protein Trafficking [PDF]
Sustained directional fibroblast migration requires both polarized activation of the protrusive signal, Rac1, and redistribution of inactive Rac1 from the rear of the cell so that it can be redistributed or degraded.

Characterization of Novel Molecular Mechanisms Favoring Rac1 Membrane Translocation. [PDF]
The Rac1 GTPase plays key roles in cytoskeletal organization, cell motility and a variety of physiological and disease-linked responses. Wild type Rac1 signaling entails dissociation of the GTPase from cytosolic Rac1-Rho GDP dissociation inhibitor (GDI ...
