RhoC
RhoC is a member of the Rho family of GTPases, which are proteins that play a crucial role in regulating various cellular processes. These processes include cell movement, growth, and division. RhoC is particularly important in the formation of structures that help cells maintain their shape and in the signaling pathways that control cell behavior.
In addition to its role in normal cellular functions, RhoC has been implicated in cancer progression. Elevated levels of RhoC are often found in aggressive tumors, where it may contribute to increased cell motility and invasion. Understanding RhoC's functions can provide insights into potential therapeutic targets for cancer treatment.
