Several small GTPases play critical roles in antigen receptor signaling pathways. When activated by binding to GTP, these mediators induce changes in cytoskeletal organization, adhesion, and metabolism, but have no role in transcription factor activation.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Small GTPases, when activated, not only induce changes in cytoskeletal organization, adhesion, and metabolism but also play a crucial role in the activation of transcription factors, which is essential for gene expression changes during immune responses.
