Abstract

Small GTPases act as molecular switches in regulating a myriad of cellular signaling, cytoskeletal dynamics, vesicular trafficking, and membrane/organelle transport processes. Here, I provide an editorial overview of papers collected in this Special Issue on the "Regulation and Function of Small GTPases 2.0".

Keywords: GTPase activating proteins (GAPs); KRAS; Ras; Rho; guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs); small GTPases.
