abstract：:We document a biphasic effect of Rac2 on the activation and inhibition of PLD2. Cells overexpressing Rac2 and PLD2 simultaneously show a robust initial (<10 min) response toward a chemoattractant that is later (>30 min) greatly diminished over PLD2-only controls. The first phase is due to the presence of a Rac2-PLD2 p...
