1 Effect of guanine nucleotide binding on the intrinsic tryptophan fluorescence properties of Rab5. Guanine Nucleotides RAB5A, member RAS oncogene family Homo sapiens
2 These data indicate that both of Rab5"s tryptophans are brought into a more sequestered, hydrophobic environment upon conformational changes promoted by guanine nucleotide exchange. Guanine Nucleotides RAB5A, member RAS oncogene family Homo sapiens
3 However, Trp114 lies within a region of Rab5 potentially related to the switch III domain unique to heterotrimeric G alpha t. Thus, changes in the fluorescence properties of Trp114 upon guanine nucleotide exchange suggest that Rab proteins may have structure-function relationships similar to those described for heterotrimeric GTP-binding proteins. Guanine Nucleotides RAB5A, member RAS oncogene family Homo sapiens
