Abstract excerpt
Two Ras-related proteins, ERas and Rheb, which are involved in the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase pathway, display high GTP affinity and have atypical CAAX motifs. The factors governing the intracellular localization of ERas and Rheb are incompletely understood. In the current study, we show by confocal microscopy that ERas is localized to the plasma membrane, whereas Rheb is confined to the endomembranes....
