Popis: Metastatic cancers are characterized by uncontrolled cell proliferation and tissue invasion, processes controlled by small Rho GTPases, the activation of which is regulated by GEF and GAP proteins. Deleted in liver cancer (DLC) proteins are such Rho regulators that are downregulated in different types of cancer. Using proteomic approaches, genetically encoded biosensors and high resolution microscopy, our lab studies how the DLC proteins control cellular Rho activity patterns in time and space.
