Defining the network of ROP GTPase signalling and its regulation in root hair development

Rho small GTPases are conserved molecular switches in eukaryotic signal transduction involved in a variety of biological processes such as the establishment of cell polarity and actin remodeling. The GTPase switch is closely controlled through regulatory mechanism involving at least two kinds of negative regulators:

  • Rho Guanine nucleotide Dissociation Inhibitors (GDIs)
  • Rho GTPase activating proteins (GAPs).
