Journal ArticleDOI

Rab GTPases at a glance.

TL;DR: It has been two decades since the yeast Ypt1 and Sec4 proteins and the mammalian Rab (Ras-related proteins in brain) GTPases were first identified as evolutionarily conserved, essential regulators of membrane trafficking.
Journal ArticleDOI

KLHL3 mutations cause familial hyperkalemic hypertension by impairing ion transport in the distal nephron

Hélène Louis-Dit-Picard, +55 more
- 01 Apr 2012 - 
TL;DR: A role is established for KLHL3 as a new member of the complex signaling pathway regulating ion homeostasis in the distal nephron and indirectly blood pressure.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structure of Rab GDP-Dissociation Inhibitor in Complex with Prenylated YPT1 GTPase

TL;DR: The structure of the monoprenylated Ypt1:RabGDI complex provides a structural basis for the ability of RabGDI to inhibit the release of nucleotide by Rab proteins and provides a molecular basis for understanding a RabG DI mutant that causes mental retardation in humans.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structure of the Rab7:REP-1 complex: insights into the mechanism of Rab prenylation and choroideremia disease.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate that although Rab27A can be prenylated by REP-2, this reaction can be effectively inhibited by other Rab proteins, providing a possible explanation for the accumulation of unprenylated Rab 27A in choroideremia.
Journal ArticleDOI

The PX-BAR membrane-remodeling unit of sorting nexin 9

TL;DR: In this paper, crystal structures of the functional membrane-remodeling unit of SNX9 were reported and shown that it efficiently tubulates lipid membranes in vivo and in vitro.
