Effects of Regulated Expression of Mutant RhoA and Rac1 Small GTPases on the Development of Epithelial (MDCK) Cell Polarity

MDCK cells expressing RhoA or Rac1 mutants under control of the tetracycline repressible transactivator were used to examine short-term effects of known amounts of each mutant before, during, or after development of cell polarity. At low cell density, Rac1V12 cells had a flattened morphology and int...
