High impact information on RHO5

  • Kinetics of actin depolarisation and repolarisation after heat treatment of rho5 deletions as well as strains overexpressing the activated RHO5Q91H allele provide further evidence for such a function [1].
  • We conclude that Rho5p acts as an off-switch for the MAP-kinase cascade, which differentiates between MAP-kinase-dependent and -independent functions of Pkc1p [1].
  • Here we show that a rho5 deletion results in an increased activity of the protein kinase C (Pkc1p)-dependent signal transduction pathway [1].
  • With the exception of Rho5p, these enzymes have been assigned different biological functions, including the regulation of polar growth, morphogenesis, actin cytoskeleton, budding and secretion [1].
  • In addition, we brought the first evidence for the existence of a sixth functional Rho in yeast, the Cdc42/Rac-like GTPase Rho5 [2].
