Download ARF Family GTPases Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
For the first time experts in the area of signalling research with a focus on the ARF family have contributed to the production of a title devoted to ARF biology. A comprehensive phylogenetic analysis of the ARF family, tables of the ARF GEFs and ARF GAPs, and more than a dozen chapters describing them in detail are provided. The impact of the ARF proteins on widely diverse aspects of cell biology and cell signalling can be clearly seen from the activities described; including membrane traffic, lipid metabolism, receptor desensitization, mouse development, microtubule dynamics, and bacterial pathogenesis. Anyone interested in understanding the complexities of cell signalling and the integration of signalling networks will benefit from this volume.

Endocytosis is a fundamental cellular process by means of which cells internalize extracellular and plasma membrane cargos for recycling or degradation. It is important for the establishment and maintenance of cell polarity, subcellular signaling and uptake of nutrients into specialized cells, but also for plant cell interactions with pathogenic and symbiotic microbes. Endocytosis starts by vesicle formation at the plasma membrane and progresses through early and late endosomal compartments. In these endosomes cargo is sorted and it is either recycled back to the plasma membrane, or degraded in the lytic vacuole. This book presents an overview of our current knowledge of endocytosis in plants with a main focus on the key molecules undergoing and regulating endocytosis. It also provides up to date methodological approaches as well as principles of protein, structural lipid, sugar and microbe internalization in plant cells. The individual chapters describe clathrin-mediated and fluid-phase endocytosis, as well as flotillin-mediated endocytosis and internalization of microbes. The book was written for a broad spectrum of readers including students, teachers and researchers.

This second of two volumes discusses subfamily proteins which function in molecular and vesicular transport mechanisms inside the cell. In this volume the focus lies on the Rab, Ran and Arf subfamily members. As in Volume 1, the book is written by international renowned scientists in the field of small G-proteins. In elaborate reviews, biochemistry, structure, function and G-protein - effector interactions are described. Together with Volume 1 this book provides an comprehensive state-of-the-art work on small G-proteins (GTPases). It is written for Graduates and Professors in Biochemistry and Cell Biology interested in the mechanism and function of small G-proteins but are extremely valuable for those who want to move into the field.

Rab GTPases are master regulators of membrane trafficking in eukaryotic cells. With GTP bound, they regulate trafficking by recruiting effectors to specific membrane-bound compartments. GTPase-activating proteins (GAPs) stimulate a Rab's intrinsic rate of GTP hydrolysis, thus inactivating the Rab by converting bound GTP to GDP. Regulation of Rab proteins links the formation and breakdown of sequential, Rab-regulated membrane domains in the secretory and endocytic pathways. This thesis presents the characterization of a novel RabGAP, RUTBC1. RUTBC1 binds Rab9 in vitro and in cells through interactions with its N-terminus. Overexpression of RUTBC1 only slightly disrupts MPR trafficking and RUTBC1 does not function as a GAP for Rab9. In vitro biochemical screening of Rab proteins revealed that RUTBC1 has GAP activity toward Rab33b and Rab32. These data suggest that RUTBC1 might function to link inactivation of these Rabs in relation to a Rab9 microdomain, in support of the existence of a Rab cascade at the interface between the Golgi apparatus and endosomes. Depletion of RUTBC1 unexpectedly led to concomitant depletion of Atg16L1. Atg16L1 has an established and essential role in macroautophagy, a highly conserved cellular recycling process. Overexpression of Atg16L1 caused the formation of large puncta in the cytoplasm, which are also labeled by endogenous RUTBC1 and may represent autophagosomes. Atg16L1 is a known Rab33b effector, suggesting that Rab33b, RUTBC1 and Atg16L1 function together to regulate autophagosome formation. Finally, RUTBC2, which is highly related to RUTBC1, also binds specifically to Rab9. In vitro biochemical screening for RUTBC2's Rab substrates showed that RUTBC2 had highest GAP activity toward Rab34 and Rab36, two very similar Rabs thought to play a role in secretion. The difference in substrate specificity between RUTBC1 and RUTBC2 further exemplifies the highly complex integration of diverse membrane trafficking pathways in mammalian cells.
