Alternate names include RhoA RhoB and RhoC. Rho proteins have a molecular mass of about 21 kDa. It is expressed in various tissues with particularly high levels in muscle the brain and fibroblasts. Rho belongs to the Ras homologous (Rho) family of GTPases and acts as a molecular switch that toggles between an active GTP-bound state and an inactive GDP-bound state.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nBy controlling the organization of the cytoskeleton Rho plays a vital role in cell shape motility and division. It is part of the Rho family GTPase complex which includes other members like Rac and Cdc42. These proteins coordinate actin filament formation affecting cellular movements such as migration and adhesion. Rho also influences the formation of stress fibers and focal adhesions linking it to mechanical stress response and cell polarity.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nRho orchestrates cell activities through pathways like the Rho\/Rho kinase (ROCK) and the phosphatidylinositol-45-bisphosphate 3-kinase (PI3K) pathways. In the Rho\/ROCK pathway Rho activates ROCK leading to actomyosin contractility and cell movement. Rho also interacts with proteins like Rac and Cdc42 in the PI3K pathway coordinating diverse cellular responses. This involvement is important for processes such as cell cycle progression and apoptosis.\u003cbr\u003e\nImproper Rho functioning is linked to conditions like cancer and cardiovascular diseases. Rho proteins contribute to cancer progression through their role in regulating cell motility and invasion with an overexpression often seen in tumors. Additionally in cardiovascular diseases Rho affects vascular smooth muscle function influencing blood pressure regulation. In these contexts Rho interacts with proteins such as ROCK and Rac which are also implicated in pathological states. Researchers use anti-Rho and anti-Rho antibodies to study these interactions and understand Rho-related pathologies better.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46851263004841,"sku":"ab239825","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab239825","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
