Abstract excerpt
Rho family GTPases are known to be involved in cytoskeletal reorganization. We examined the possibility that these functions may be dictated by a balance of Rho family GTPase signaling. Using transient viral expression of RhoA, Rac1, Cdc42 and their mutants, as well as C3 exoenzyme, we altered cytoskeletal organization under normal growth conditions. Overexpression of wild-type or constitutively active forms of...
