Rho effectors and reorganization of actin cytoskeleton
Abstract
The small GTPase Rho regulates several actomyosin‐based cellular processes such as cell adhesion, cytokinesis and contraction. The biochemical mechanisms of these actions remain unknown. Recently, several GTP‐Rho binding proteins were isolated. Among them, p140mDia and p160ROCK appear to work as Rho effectors mediating its action on the cytoskeleton. p140mDia induces actin polymerization by recruiting an actin binding protein, profilin, to the site of Rho action. p160ROCK induces focal adhesions and stress fibers by activating integrin and clustering them by the use of myosin‐based contractility.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
