Research Abstract |
RhoGDIβ (Rho GDP-dissociation inhibitor β)is one of the regulators of Rho proteins that has been implicated in cancer progression; however, the specific role of RhoGDIβ in cells has been unclear. We examined its subcellular localization and the effects of RhoGDIβ knockdown by RNAi in cancer cells. Our results suggest that dysregulated expression of RhoGDIβ contributes to cancer progression through the regulation of centrosome function and cell polarity.
