Small RhoGTPases alternate between their active (RhoGTP) and inactive (RhoGDP) forms. Activation is controlled by guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs), whereas deactivation is mediated by GTPase activating proteins (GAPs) Rho effector proteins, which include DLC protein family, play an important role in processes that affect cell morphology, motility and tumorigenesis.
