Importance of fumarate and nitrate reduction regulatory protein for intestinal proliferation of Vibrio vulnificus.

abstract：:The ADP-ribosylation factor (ARF) family of GTPases are highly conserved from yeast to human and regulate vesicle budding. Sec7 domain containing proteins stimulate the guanine nucleotide exchange on Arf proteins, while ARF-GTPase activating proteins stimulate the hydrolysis of GTP. Since vesicle trafficking is import...
