AbstractRho GTPases are a family of small GTPases, which play an important role in the regulation of the actin cytoskeleton. Not surprisingly, Rho GTPases are crucial for cell migration and therefore highly important for cancer cell invasion and the formation of metastases. In addition, Rho GTPases are involved in growth and survival of tumor cells, in

The Ras-homology (Rho) GTPases were initially linked to regulation of actin cytoskeletal architecture, maintenance of cell shape and polarity, and to cell migration. Subsequent studies have shown that Rho GTPases are involved in highly diverse cellular and biological functions, many of which contribute to tumorigenesis.

Rho GTPases regulate many important processes in all eukaryotic cells, including the organization of the actin cytoskeleton, gene transcription, cell cycle progression, and membrane trafficking. Their activity is regulated by signals originating from different classes of surface receptors including G-protein-coupled receptors, tyrosine kinase receptors,

Regulating Rho GTPases and their regulators
Rho GTPases regulate cytoskeletal and cell adhesion dynamics and thereby coordinate a wide range of cellular processes, including cell migration, cell polarity and cell cycle progression. Most Rho GTPases cycle between a GTP-bound active conformation and

The RAS oncogenes were identified almost 20 years ago. Since then, we have learnt that they are members of a large family of small GTPases that bind GTP and hydrolyse it to GDP. This is then exchanged for GTP and the cycle is repeated. The switching between these two states regulates a wide range of cellular processes.

The Rho (Ras-homologous) family of proteins constitutes a major branch of the Ras superfamily of small GTPases, and is evolutionarily conserved across several phyla. Thus far, 25 members have been identified, and these may be divided into 6 subfamilies based on amino acid sequence identity, structural motifs, and biological function.

Current Opinion in Cell Biology, 1999
The Rho GTPases are simple enzymes with complex roles in regulating cell morphology, gene transcription, cell cycle progression, apoptosis and tumour progression. The picture has been further complicated by the steady rise in the number of known Rho GTPases as well as in the number of known regulators and target proteins of these GTPases.

Rho GTPases comprise a family of molecular switches that control signal transduction pathways in eukaryotic cells. A conformational change induced upon binding GTP promotes an interaction with target (effector) proteins to generate a cellular response. A highly conserved function of Rho GTPases from yeast to humans is to control the actin cytoskeleton,

Rho GTPases: Signaling, Migration, and Invasion
The acquisition of a motile and invasive phenotype is an important step in the development of tumors and ultimately metastasis. This step requires the abrogation of cell-cell contacts, the remodeling of the extracellular matrix and of cell-matrix ...
