The normal Rho protein helps the bacteria cells to do better in feast condition, but is a hindrance when its owner faces famine. Worthan and team found mutated ydcI allowed cells to better ...

Rho (Ras-homologous) GTPases apparently play an important role. These proteins process signals within cells and regulate, among other things, growth, differentiation into the genetically ...

This movie shows a side view of the Rho protein motor in action. To clarify the mechanism, two of the six subunits have been removed. As ATP is released from binding sites (D, E, T and T*), the ...

However, unlike other bacteria, B. thetaiotaomicron's Rho protein harbors a large intrinsically disordered domain (IDR). Krypotou et al. now show that the unique IDR of this Rho protein enables ...
