Analysis of Rho GTPase signalling pathways regulating epithelial morphogenesis [PDF]
Rho GTPases are molecular switches controlling many aspects of cell behaviour, including cell cycle progression, cell division, migration and morphology. The activity of Rho proteins is regulated by conformational changes induced by binding of guanine

14-3-3 Proteins Interact with a Hybrid Prenyl-Phosphorylation Motif to Inhibit G Proteins [PDF]
Signaling through G proteins normally involves conformational switching between GTP- and GDP-bound states. Several Rho GTPases are also regulated by RhoGDI binding and sequestering in the cytosol.

Ligand‐dependent transcriptional heterogeneity in cell cycle gene expression delays G1/S entry
EGF and HRG induce distinct G1/S progression programs in ErbB2‐amplified BT474 breast cancer cells. Despite activating the potent ErbB2–ErbB3 heterodimer, HRG does not accelerate cell‐cycle entry. Instead, EGF promotes earlier restriction‐point passage via ERK–FOS signaling, whereas HRG activates the AKT–MYC axis, driving transcriptional heterogeneity ...

The Functional Significance of the Rho/Rho-Kinase Pathway in Human Erythrocytes
OBJECTIVE: Erythrocyte deformability, which can be influenced by various intracellular signaling mechanisms, such as nitric oxide, cAMP, cGMP, and protein kinases, is the most important physiological factor providing the blood flow in microcirculation ...

The Shewanella oneidensis Fic enzyme SoFic targets the switch‐I region of EF‐Tu for AMPylation
Fic enzymes mediate diverse post‐translational modifications across all domains of life, including AMPylation. Prokaryotic EF‐Tu can be AMPylated and deAMPylated by the conserved Fic enzyme SoFic. Structural and biochemical approaches were used to characterize the effect of AMPylation on EF‐Tu, SoFic's enzymatic activities, and the enzyme‐target ...

The Relation between Variances of 3D Density and Its 2D Column Density Revisited
We revisit the relation between the variance of three-dimensional (3D) density ( ${\sigma }_{\rho }^{2}$ ) and that of the projected two-dimensional (2D) column density ( ${\sigma }_{{\rm{\Sigma }}}^{2}$ ) in turbulent media, which is of great importance

Generation and evaluation of a transgenic zebrafish for tissue-specific expression of a dominant-negative Rho-associated protein kinase-2 [PDF]
The Ras homologous (Rho) proteins are a family of small GTPases, which regulate the cytoskeleton and are related to stress fibers and focal adhesion. The Rho-associated protein kinases (ROCK) constitute part of the Rho effectors that regulate cell shape ...
