... FEBS Journal 272 (2005) 37–46 ª 2004 FEBS The Rab5 effector Rabaptin-5 and its isoform Rabaptin-5d differ in their ability to interact with the small GTPase Rab4 Elena Korobko1,2, Sergey Kiselev1, ... August2004)doi:10.1111/j.1432-1033.2004.04399.x Rabaptin-5 is an effector for the small GTPase Rab5, a regulator of the early steps in endocytosis. In addition, Rabaptin-5 interacts with the small GTPase Rab4 that has been implicated in ... therefore used this assay to analyze the interaction of Rabaptin-5d with Rab4 and Rab5. Similarly to Rabaptin-5, Rabaptin-5d was not able to bind Rab4 or Rab5 in the inactive, GDP-boundform as...
