    Abstract

    Grb7 is a member of a family of molecular adapters which are able to contribute positively but also negatively to signal transduction and whose precise roles remain obscure. Rnd1 is a member of the Rho family, but, as opposed to usual GTPases, it is constitutively bound to GTP. We show here that Rnd1 and Grb7 interact, in two-hybrid assays, in vitro, and in pull-down experiments performed with SK-BR3, a breast cancer cell line that overexpresses Grb7. This interaction involves switch II loop of Rnd1, a region crucial for guanine nucleotide exchange in all GTPases, and a Grb7 SH2 domain, a region crucial for Grb7 interaction with several activated receptors. The contribution of the interaction between Rnd1 and Grb7 to their respective functions and properties is discussed.
