Regulation of the human neutrophil NADPH oxidase by the Rac GTP-binding proteins

Current Opinion in Cell Biology, 1994
Recent progress in our understanding of the regulation of the phagocyte NADPH oxidase by the Rac GTP-binding protein(s) has provided the first detailed glimpse into the mechanisms of leukocyte regulation by a small GTP-binding protein. Studies over the past year have indicated that the activity of the NADPH oxidase can be modulated by regulation of the

Activation of the small GTP-binding proteins rho and rac by growth factor receptors

Journal of Cell Science, 1995
ABSTRACT The small GTP-binding proteins, rho and rac, control signal transduction pathways that link growth factor receptors to the activation of actin polymerization. In Swiss 3T3 cells, rho proteins mediate the lysophosphatidic acid and bombesin-induced formation of focal adhesions and actin stress fibres, whilst rac proteins are ...

A dominant inhibitory version of the small GTP-binding protein Rac disrupts cytoskeletal structures and inhibits developmental cell shape changes in Drosophila

Development, 1995
ABSTRACT The Rho subfamily of Ras-related small GTP-binding proteins is involved in regulation of the cytoskeleton. The cytoskeletal changes induced by two members of this subfamily, Rho and Rac, in response to growth factor stim-ulation, have dramatic effects on cell morphology.

Transgenic tobacco plants that express an antisense construct derived from a Medicago sativa cDNA encoding a Rac-related small GTP-binding protein fail to develop necrotic lesions upon elicitor infiltration

Molecular and General Genetics MGG, 2000
Using an RT-PCR approach a rac-related cDNA clone, designated Ms-rac1, was isolated from Medicago sativa (alfalfa). Ms-rac1 encodes a putative protein of 197 amino acids, which is closely related to known Rac-related GTP-binding proteins from Pisum sativum and Arabidopsis thaliana.
