Abstract excerpt
The cAMP-PKA cascade is a recognized signaling pathway important in inhibition of inflammatory injury events such as endothelial permeability and leucocyte trafficking, and a critical target of regulation is believed to be inhibition of Rho proteins. Here, we hypothesize that PKA directly phosphorylates GTP dissociation inhibitor (GDI) to negatively regulate Rho activity. Amino acid analysis of GDIalpha showed...
