Traffic control: Rab GTPases and the regulation of interorganellar transport.
Membrane proteins, membrane lipids, and luminal contents are exchanged among the intracellular compartments of eukaryotic cells by vesicular transport. This process must be highly ordered to maintain cellular architecture in the face of rapid membrane turnover. The Ras-related Rab GTPases play multiple roles in regulating this traffic.
