Amino acid substitutions at the position cognate to N116 in H-Ras typically yield soluble Rab proteins that have a reduced affinity for guanine nucleotides.
Elevated TNFα activity may play a role in the apoptosis of CL-derived microvascular endothelial (CLENDO) cells [ 29 ] . TNFα is known to initiate apoptosis in diverse cell types by activating its cognate receptor, TNF-RI, a cell surface receptor and member of the tumor necrosis receptor super family (TNFRSF).

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.
