In the endocytic pathway, early endosomes are converted into late endosomes by exchange of their associated Rab GTPases. In this issue, Poteryaev et al. (2010) identify the SAND-1/Mon1 protein as a switch that shuts off the recruitment of one Rab (Rab5) and facilitates the activation of the next (Rab7).
在胞吞作用途径中,早期内涵体通过其相关 Rab GTPases 的交换转化为晚期内涵体。在本期中,Poteryaev 等人(2010)确定 SAND-1/Mon1 蛋白作为一个开关,它关闭了一个 Rab(Rab5)的募集,并促进了下一个(Rab7)的激活。
