Small GTPase Rho regulates thrombin-induced platelet aggregation.

abstract：:An inhibitor of reverse transcriptase of Moloney leukemia virus was reported previously in the cytoplasm of the cultured cells (1). In this report, the mechanism of the inhibition was examined. The inhibitory activity was completely abrogated by treatment at 55 degrees C for 20 min. Destruction of the reaction product...
