The GTPase superfamily: conserved structure and molecular mechanism
Abstract
GTPases are conserved molecular switches, built according to a common structural design. Rapidly accruing knowledge of individual GTPases--crystal structures, biochemical properties, or results of molecular genetic experiments--support and generate hypotheses relating structure to function in other members of the diverse family of GTPases.

Because G-proteins have intrinsically low GTPase activity, regulatory proteins are required for spatiotemporal control of the transition between active and inactive states.
“Rather, due to the intrinsically low GTPase activity of G-proteins, regulatory proteins are required for spatiotemporal control of the transition between active and inactive states (Fig. 1B).”

GTPase affinity for guanine nucleotides is extremely high (Kd 10−7-10−11), ensuring committed states that do not spontaneously interchange and do not respond to changes in cellular nucleotide concentrations.
“The affinity of the interaction between GTPases and either guanine nucleotides is extremely high (Kd 10−7–10−11) ensuring that these are committed states that do not spontaneously interchange; they do not respond to changes in cellular nucleotide concentrations (8).”

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.
