Abstract excerpt
Intracellular trafficking is a tightly regulated cellular process, mediated in part by Rab GTPases and their corresponding effector proteins. Viruses have evolved mechanisms to hijack these processes to promote their lifecycles. Here we describe a mechanism by which cleavage of the Rab7 adaptor protein, RILP (Rab interacting lysosomal protein) is induced by viral infection. We report that RILP is directly cleaved...
