Abstract:BackgroundRhoA GTPases play critical roles in actin cytoskeletal remodeling required for controlling a diverse range of cellular functions including cell proliferation, adhesion, migration and changes in cell shape, all required for cutaneous wound healing. RhoA cycles between an active GTP‐bound and an inactive GDP‐bound form, a process regulated by guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) and GTPase‐activating proteins (GAPs). ARHGAP29 is a GAP expressed in skin keratinocytes and is decreased in the absenc… Show more
