This Is the End: Regulation of Rab7 Nucleotide Binding in Endolysosomal Trafficking and Autophagy

Rab7 – or in yeast, Ypt7p – governs membrane trafficking in the late endocytic and autophagic pathways. Rab7 also regulates mitochondrion-lysosome contacts, the sites of mitochondrial fission. Like all Rab GTPases, Rab7 cycles between an “active” GTP-bound form that binds downstream effectors – e.g....
