Rho GTPases and signaling networks [PDF]
The Rho GTPases form a subgroup of the Ras superfamily of 20- to 30-kD GTP-binding proteins that have been shown to regulate a wide spectrum of cellular functions. These proteins are ubiquitously expressed across the species, from yeast to man. The mammalian Rho-like GTPases comprise at least 10 distinct proteins: RhoA, B, C, D, and E; Rac1 and 2; RacE;

Regulation of Rho GTPases in the Vasculature by Cullin3-Based E3 Ligase Complexes [PDF]
Cullin3-based ubiquitin E3 ligases induce ubiquitination of substrates leading to their proteasomal or lysosomal degradation. BTB proteins serve as adaptors by binding to Cullin3 and recruiting substrate proteins, which enables specific recognition of a ...

Rho GTPases in ameloblast differentiation
During tooth development, ameloblasts differentiate from inner enamel epithelial cells to enamel-forming cells by modulating the signal pathways mediating epithelial–mesenchymal interaction and a cell-autonomous gene network.

Rho GTPase signaling in rheumatic diseases
Summary: Rho guanosine triphosphatase (GTPases), as molecular switches, have been identified to be dysregulated and involved in the pathogenesis of various rheumatic diseases, mainly including rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, systemic sclerosis, and

Turning Platelets Off and On: Role of RhoGAPs and RhoGEFs in Platelet Activity
Platelet cytoskeletal reorganisation is a critical component of platelet activation and thrombus formation in haemostasis. The Rho GTPases RhoA, Rac1 and Cdc42 are the primary drivers in the dynamic reorganisation process, leading to the development of ...

High Throughput strategies Aimed at Closing the GAP in Our Knowledge of Rho GTPase Signaling
Since their discovery, Rho GTPases have emerged as key regulators of cytoskeletal dynamics. In humans, there are 20 Rho GTPases and more than 150 regulators that belong to the RhoGEF, RhoGAP, and RhoGDI families.

RHO GTPase family in hepatocellular carcinoma
RHO GTPases are a subfamily of the RAS superfamily of proteins, which are highly conserved in eukaryotic species and have important biological functions, including actin cytoskeleton reorganization, cell proliferation, cell polarity, and vesicular ...
