Abstract
The control of intracellular membrane trafficking by Rho GTPases is central to cellular homeostasis. How specific guanine nucleotide exchange factors and GTPase-activating proteins locally balance GTPase activation in this process is nevertheless largely unclear. By performing a microscopy-based RNAi screen, we here identify the RhoGEF protein Solo as a functional counterplayer of DLC3, a RhoGAP protein with established roles in membrane trafficking. Biochemical, imaging and optogenetics assays further uncover Solo as a novel regulator of endosomal RhoB. Remarkably, we find that Solo and DLC3 control not only the activity, but also total protein levels of RhoB in an antagonistic manner. Together, the results of our study uncover the first functionally connected RhoGAP-RhoGEF pair at endomembranes, placing Solo and DLC3 at the core of endocytic trafficking.
期刊介绍：
Traffic encourages and facilitates the publication of papers in any field relating to intracellular transport in health and disease. Traffic papers span disciplines such as developmental biology, neuroscience, innate and adaptive immunity, epithelial cell biology, intracellular pathogens and host-pathogen interactions, among others using any eukaryotic model system. Areas of particular interest include protein, nucleic acid and lipid traffic, molecular motors, intracellular pathogens, intracellular proteolysis, nuclear import and export, cytokinesis and the cell cycle, the interface between signaling and trafficking or localization, protein translocation, the cell biology of adaptive an innate immunity, organelle biogenesis, metabolism, cell polarity and organization, and organelle movement.
All aspects of the structural, molecular biology, biochemistry, genetics, morphology, intracellular signaling and relationship to hereditary or infectious diseases will be covered. Manuscripts must provide a clear conceptual or mechanistic advance. The editors will reject papers that require major changes, including addition of significant experimental data or other significant revision.
Traffic will consider manuscripts of any length, but encourages authors to limit their papers to 16 typeset pages or less.
