Fic-mediated adenylylation : catalysis and regulation [PDF]
Adenylylation, also referred to as adenylation or AMPylation, is the process by which adenosine-5‘-monophosphate (AMP) is covalently attached to a protein, a nucleic acid, or a small molecule.

Roles of Rap1 signaling in tumor cell migration and invasion
Ras-associated protein-1 (Rap1), a small GTPase in the Ras-related protein family, is an important regulator of basic cellular functions (e.g., formation and control of cell adhesions and junctions), cellular migration, and polarization.

RhoA and Rac1 in Liver Cancer Cells: Induction of Overexpression Using Mechanical Stimulation
Liver cancer, especially hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), is an aggressive disease with an extremely high mortality rate. Unfortunately, no promising markers are currently available for the early diagnosis of this disease.

Conserved Inhibitory Mechanism and Competent ATP Binding Mode for Adenylyltransferases with Fic Fold [PDF]
The ubiquitous FIC domain is evolutionarily conserved from bacteria to human and has been shown to catalyze AMP transfer onto protein side-chain hydroxyl groups.

Non‐canonical PKG1 regulation in cardiovascular health and disease
It is well established that the cyclic GMP‐dependent protein kinase I (PKG1) is canonically activated by cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP), enabling its regulation of vascular tone, cardiac function and smooth muscle homeostasis. However, diverse non‐canonical stimuli of PKG1 have also been identified.

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
