Small GTPases are versatile temporal and spatial regulators of virtually all cellular processes including signal transduction, cytoskeleton dynamics and membrane trafficking. They function as molecular switches, aided by a multitude of regulatory and effector proteins that link them into functional networks. A picture is beginning to emerge whereupon scaffold proteins with many functional domains perform the regulatory and effector functions, thus allowing the ordered recruitment and activation of small GTPases. This leads to the formation of scaffolding patches that coordinate cargo concentration and capture, with the recruitment and activation of the membrane tethering complexes and fusion regulators. This review will focus on the crosstalk of Arf and Rab GTPases at the Golgi complex and the scaffolds that facilitate their activation during trafficking of sensory receptors to primary cilia. The evolutionary conservation of the GTPase cascades in ciliogenesis and yeast budding will be discussed. |
