MglA functions as a three-state GTPase to control movement reversals of Myxococcus xanthus
Nature Communications, 2019 In Myxococcus xanthus, directed movement is controlled by pole-to-pole oscillations of the small GTPase MglA and its GAP MglB. Here authors report the complete MglA/MglB structural cycle and uncover that MglA is a three-state GTPase that adopts an ...

The GTPase IFT27 is involved in both anterograde and retrograde intraflagellar transport
eLife, 2014 The construction of cilia and flagella depends on intraflagellar transport (IFT), the bidirectional movement of two protein complexes (IFT-A and IFT-B) driven by specific kinesin and dynein motors.

Structural and Functional Analysis of BipA, a Regulator of Virulence in Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli. [PDF]
, 2015 The translational GTPase BipA regulates the expression of virulence and pathogenicity factors in several eubacteria. BipA-dependent expression of virulence factors occurs under starvation conditions, such as encountered during infection of a host.

The Plant Cell, 2002 Small GTPases, having masses of 21 to 30 kD, are monomeric guanine nucleotide binding proteins related to the α subunit of heterotrimeric G proteins. All small GTPases belong to a superfamily, often named the Ras superfamily because the founding members are encoded by human Ras genes ...

Dynamin as a Mover and Pincher during Cell Migration and Invasion [PDF]
, 2006 The large GTPase dynamin, long known for its role in endocytosis, has most recently been implicated as a facilitator of cell migration and invasion. Recent observations link dynamin to the cycle of membrane expansion and retraction essential for cell ...

Characterization of ROP GTPase-activated Arabidopsis receptor-like cytoplasmic kinases (RLCK class VI_A) [PDF]
, 2011 Plants have to respond and adapt to a variety of continuously changing environmental factors in order to establish an appropriate developmental strategy to ensure survival. There are ample data showing that protein phosphorylation/dephosphorylation plays

Regulation of intracellular cyclic GMP concentration by light and calcium in electropermeabilized rod photoreceptors. [PDF]
, 1994 This study examines the regulation of cGMP by illumination and by calcium during signal transduction in vertebrate retinal photoreceptor cells. We employed an electropermeabilized rod outer segment (EP-ROS) preparation which permits perfusion of low ...

Cryo-EM structure of the E. coli translating ribosome in complex with SRP and its receptor [PDF]
, 2010 We report the 'early' conformation of the Escherichia coli signal recognition particle (SRP) and its receptor FtsY bound to the translating ribosome, as determined by cryo-EM.
