Abstract excerpt
Rab proteins comprise a family of monomeric GTPases that control cellular membrane traffic. Rab21 is a poorly characterised member with no known function. Human Rab21 cDNA from K562 cells was subcloned into GFP expression vectors to generate Rab21 and Rab21 mutants defective in either GTP hydrolysis (Rab21 Q78L) or binding (Rab21 T33N) for transfection studies in HeLa cells. Confocal fluorescence microscopy and...
