A novel binding protein composed of homophilic tetramer exhibits unique properties for the small GTPase Rab5.

Saito K, Murai J, Kajiho H, Kontani K, Kurosu H, Katada T

The small GTPase Rab family, which cycles between GTP-bound active and GDP-bound inactive states, plays an important role in membrane trafficking. Among them, Rab5 is involved in early endocytic pathway, and several Rab5-binding proteins have been identified as regulators or effectors to coordinate the docking and fusion processes of endocytic vesicles. We describe a novel binding protein exhibiting unique biochemical ... [more]
