Rab4 and Rab5 GTPase are required for directional mobility of endocytic vesicles in astrocytes.

Glia - 1 Apr 2012

Potokar Maja, Lacovich Valentina, Chowdhury Helena H, Kreft Marko, Zorec Robert

Abstract excerpt

Rab4 and Rab5 GTPases are key players in the regulation of endocytosis. Although their role has been studied intensively in the past, it is still unclear how they regulate vesicle mobility. In particular, in astrocytes, the most abundant glial cells in the brain, vesicles have been shown to exhib...
