CDK5 — RAC1
Text-mined interactions from Literome
Alexander et al., Mol Cell Biol 2004
:
The increased activity of
CDK5 further
reduces GTPase
Rac1 activity and Pak activation ... The
repression of the activity of the GTPase
Rac1 by
CDK5 is required for expression of the senescent phenotype ...
CDK5 regulation of
Rac1 activity is necessary for actin polymerization accompanying senescent morphology in response to expression of pRb, activated Ras, or continuous passage
Castillo-Lluva et al., J Cell Sci 2007
:
Our results indicated that
Cdk5 is
required for the activity of
Rac1 , probably at the level of the localization of its GEF, Cdc24. Cdk5 was required for full virulence, probably because mutant cells are unable to sustain the dramatic polar growth required for the formation of the infective structures
