Abstract excerpt
Fcgamma receptor (FcgammaR)-mediated phagocytosis of IgG-coated particles is regulated by 3'-phosphoinositides (3'PIs) and several classes of small GTPases, including ARF6 from the ADP Ribosylation Factor subfamily. The insensitivity of phagocytosis to brefeldin A (BFA), an inhibitor of certain ARF guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs), previously indicated that ARF1 did not participate in phagocytosis. In...
