G Proteins and Small GTPases: Distant Relatives Keep in Touch

Hall, Alan·1998·Science

Abstract

Both low molecular weight G proteins and the larger heterotrimeric G proteins are switched on and off by binding the nucleotide GTP. New results in this issue by Kosaza et al. and Hart et al. show that these two distant relatives actually regulate one another. Hall explains in his commentary that this advance is more than just a family reunion and actually reveals the mechanism by which many fundamental cell processes that alter cell shape are regulated, including gastrulation.

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.
