Several laboratories have shown that in addition to mutations in the N(T)KxD motif, which reduce overall nucleotide binding, dominant-negative Rab constructs can be generated by introducing amino acid substitutions ( e.g. , asparagine) at the position cognate to Ras S17 ( i.e. , S22 in Rab24) [ 31 40 41 42 ] . Such proteins are thought to be locked in an inactive GDP-bound state because the mutation markedly reduces their affinity for GTP, compared to GDP [ 42 ] . As shown in Fig.
