Members of the ADP-ribosylation factor (ARF) family of guanine-nucleotide binding proteins play crucial roles in cellular processes, particularly in regulating secretion and endocytic pathways. The proper activation and precise subcellular distribution of ARF family proteins, which are regulated by guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) and GTPase-activating proteins (GAPs), are essential for the fidelity of intracellular vesicular trafficking. In this review, we summarize the recent progress in understanding the membrane recruitment, activation, crosstalk, and functions of ARF family proteins.
Members of the ADP-ribosylation factor (ARF) family of guanine-nucleotide binding proteins play critical roles in various cellular processes, especially in regulating the secretory, and endocytic pathways. The fidelity of intracellular vesicular trafficking depends on proper activations and precise subcellular distributions of ARF family proteins regulated by guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) and GTPase-activating proteins (GAPs). Here we review recent progress in understanding the membrane recruitment, activation, crosstalk, and functions of ARF family proteins.
