1 8037667 Western-blot analysis of microsomal membranes with a panel of antisera against rab GTP-binding proteins indicated the presence of rab4A, with a molecular mass of 24 kDa, whereas rab1A, rab2 and rab6 were not observed. rab4A was barely detectable in GLUT4-enriched vesicles; however, insulin produced an extensive shift of rab4A from the cytosol and the microsomal fraction to the plasma membrane with a parallel increase in GLUT4.
2 7575448 In addition to the translocation of GLUT4, insulin was found to promote the movement of the small GTP-binding protein rab4A from the cytosol (decrease to 61 +/- 13% of control) to the plasma membrane (increase to 177 +/- 19% of control) in lean rats with no effect of the hormone on rab4A redistribution in the obese group.
3 20728450 Expression profiling of akt2(-/-) myocardium revealed that Rab4a, a GTPase involved in glucose transporter 4 translocation and ?-adrenergic receptor (?AR) recycling to the plasma membrane, was significantly induced.
4 20728450 Confirmatory analysis revealed up-regulation of Rab4a mRNA and protein in akt2(-/-) myocardium.
5 20728450 In cultured cardiomyocyte experiments, Rab4a was induced by pharmacological inhibition of Akt as well as by specific knockdown of Akt2 with siRNA.
