Spontaneous Cdc42 polarization independent of GDI-mediated extraction and actin-based trafficking.

Spontaneous Cdc42 polarization independent of GDI-mediated extraction and actin-based trafficking.

The small Rho-family GTPase Cdc42 is critical for cell polarization and polarizes spontaneously in absence of upstream spatial cues. Spontaneous polarization is thought to require dynamic Cdc42 recycling through Guanine nucleotide Dissociation Inhibitor (GDI)-mediated membrane extraction and vesicle...
