abstract：:Rho family small GTPases regulate lymphocyte migration induced by chemokines. However, how lymphocyte migration is regulated by Rho GTPases remains to be elucidated. Here, we identified FilGAP, a Rac-specific GAP, as a negative regulator of lymphocyte polarization and migration. Depletion of FilGAP in mouse pro-B BAF ...
