Leukemia-associated RhoGEF (LARG) is a novel RhoGEF in cytokinesis and required for the proper completion of abscission

This study demonstrates a novel and unexpected role in cytokinesis for leukemia-associated RhoGEF (LARG). Depletion of LARG results in delayed abscission, and thus LARG is the first RhoGEF to be implicated in late cytokinesis.
