  • Similar to other small G proteins, the guanine binding state of Rab3 proteins is regulated by guanine nucleotide exchange proteins or factors (GEPs or GEFs) and GTPase activating proteins (GAPs). (pancreapedia.org)
  • Na(+) influx via Orai1 inhibits intracellular ATP-induced mTORC2 signaling to disrupt CD4 T cell gene expression and differentiation. (nih.gov)
  • Mutations of a gene sequence can modify the interfaces or domains of its protein product and lead to the emergence of new or loss of existing protein interaction patterns [ 11 ]. (biomedcentral.com)
  • While assembly of the complex can take place under only conditions where a components and a membrane is present, disassembly requires that NSF can hydrolyze ATP. (wikipedia.org)
  • Further studies demonstrated that the ATP hydrolysis step occurs prior to a calcium ion mediated fusion event, and thus revealing, that SNAP and NSF proteins initiate disassembly the 20S complex before the docking event takes place directly at the membrane. (wikipedia.org)
  • 4) Lysosomal fusion with autophagosomes also requires SNAREs, including VAMP8, syntaxin-17 and SNAP29. (biomedcentral.com)
