The Atypical Rho GTPase CHW-1 Works With SAX-3/Robo to Mediate Axon Guidance in <i>Caenorhabditis elegans</i>

2018-02-13

Abstract excerpt

During development, neuronal cells extend an axon towards their target destination in response to a cue to form a properly functioning nervous system. Rho proteins, Ras-related small GTPases that regulate cytoskeletal organization and dynamics, cell adhesion, and motility, are known to regulate axon guidance. Despite extensive knowledge about canonical Rho proteins (RhoA/Rac1/Cdc42), little is known about the Cae...
