RhoBTB2 is a substrate of the mammalian Cu13 ubiquitin ligase complex

Article Abstract:

A model has been suggested wherein Rh0BTB2 functions as a tumor suppressor by recruiting proteins for degradation. More tests are being conducted to identify if Rh0BTB2 is indeed a substrate-specific adoptor for Cul3.

Dictyostelium RasD is required for normal phototaxis, but not differentiation

Article Abstract:

Research has been conducted on the mammalian Ras Dictyostelium homolog RasD. Results indicate that gene distribution for rasD causes phototaxis and thermotaxis loss in mutant aggregates.
