The Small GTPase Rho5 - Yet Another Player in Yeast Glucose Signaling

This study shows Rho5 regulates yeast glucose signaling by affecting carbohydrate metabolism, cell wall, and mitochondrial composition, with a role upstream of Ras2 in cAMP-PKA signaling and inhibiting respiratory capacity.

Oxidative stress response mediated by the yeast Rho5 GTPase depends on the proper spatiotemporal distribution of its dimeric GEF

This study shows that the yeast Rho5 GTPase's oxidative stress response depends on its proper spatiotemporal distribution, mediated by its dimeric GEF's localization and activity.
