TLDR
In vitro findings strongly suggest that rab5 is involved in the process of early endosome fusion, and the inhibition mediated by anti-rab5 antibodies could be overcome by complementing the assay with the cytosol containing wild-type rab5, but not with the same cytOSol depleted of rab5.

Rab proteins as membrane organizers

TL;DR: Cellular organelles in the exocytic and endocytic pathways have a distinctive spatial distribution and communicate through an elaborate system of vesiculo-tubular transport.

Rab GTPases as coordinators of vesicle traffic.

TL;DR: Crosstalk between multiple Rab GTPases through shared effectors, or through effectors that recruit selective Rab activators, ensures the spatiotemporal regulation of vesicle traffic.

Mechanisms of phagocytosis in macrophages

TL;DR: Macrophages also play an important role in the recognition and clearance of apoptotic cells; a notable feature of this process is the absence of an inflammatory response.

Localization of low molecular weight GTP binding proteins to exocytic and endocytic compartments.

TL;DR: Findings provide evidence that members of the YPT1/SEC4 subfamily of GTP binding proteins are localized to specific exocytic and endocytic subcompartments in mammalian cells.
