'''Rho GTPase''' of higher vertebrates include '''RhoA, RhoB''' and '''RhoC'''. These 3 proteins share 85% sequence identity. RhoA is the more extensively studied among these three. RhoA regulates a signal transduction phosphorylation pathway linking plasma membrane receptors to the assembly of focal adhesions and actin stress fibers. Rho GTPase operates as a switch cycling between the active GTP-bound form and the inactive GDP-bound one. A number of proteins have been identified as targets of RhoA<ref>PMID:12642488</ref>.
