    Randall Division of Cell and Molecular Biophysics, King s College London, London SE1 1UL, England, UK
    J Cell Biol 193:655-65. 2011
    ..We propose that RhoA contributes to migratory cell polarity through ROCK2-mediated suppression of Rac1 activity in lamellipodia, whereas RhoC promotes polarized migration through FMNL3 by restricting lamellipodial broadening...

    Randall Division of Cell and Molecular Biophysics, King s College London, New Hunt s House, Guy s Campus, London SE1 1UL, UK
    Open Biol 2:120076. 2012
    ..We propose that RhoB contributes to directional cell migration by regulating β1 integrin surface levels and activity, thereby stabilizing lamellipodial protrusions...
