Deskripsi
Changes in intracellular GTP levels are not considered as a regulatory event in RAC1 activation in live cells since total GTP levels are substantially higher than the RAC1 GTP dissociation constant determined in vitro. Here, the authors demonstrate that the availability of free GTP in live cells controls the activity of RAC1 and cell invasion.
