The role of the hypervariable C-terminal domain in Rab GTPases membrane targeting.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 18 Feb 2014

Li Fu, Yi Long, Zhao Lei, Itzen Aymelt, Goody Roger S, Wu Yao-Wen

Abstract excerpt

Intracellular membrane trafficking requires correct and specific localization of Rab GTPases. The hypervariable C-terminal domain (HVD) of Rabs is posttranslationally modified by isoprenyl moieties that enable membrane association. A model asserting HVD-directed targeting has been contested in pr...
