..Purified Msb4p/Gyp4p acts primarily on Sec4p, Ypt6p and Ypt7p and might have a role in polarized secretion. .. Tcheperegine S, Gao X, Bi E. Regulation of cell polarity by interactions of Msb3 and Msb4 with Cdc42 and polarisome components. Mol Cell Biol. 2005;25:8567-80 pubmed
..Here we show that the Rab GTPase-activating proteins (GAPs) Msb3 and Msb4 interact directly with Spa2, a scaffold protein of the "polarisome" that also interacts with the formin .. Iwanejko L, Smith K, Loeillet S, Nicolas A, Fabre F. Disruption and functional analysis of six ORFs on chromosome XV: YOL117w, YOL115w ( TRF4), YOL114c, YOL112w ( MSB4), YOL111c and YOL072w. Yeast. 1999;15:1529-39 pubmed
..Disruption of three of the ORFs-YOL117w, YOL114c, and YOL112w (also known as MSB4)-does not result in any noteworthy phenotype with respect to temperature or nutritional requirements, but yol112w ..

The GAP activity of Msb3p and Msb4p for the Rab GTPase Sec4p is required for efficient exocytosis and actin organization. J Cell Biol. 2003;162:635-46 pubmed
..Using a strain defective in polarized secretion and actin-patch organization, we showed that a change in actin-patch organization could be a consequence of the fusion of mistargeted vesicles with the plasma membrane. ..

..the biochemical function of Tre2 oncogene, we expressed its cDNA and, as a control, the RN-tre cDNA, in an msb3 msb4 double mutant yeast strain... Bizimungu C, Vandenbol M. At least two regions of the oncoprotein Tre2 are involved in its lack of GAP activity. Biochem Biophys Res Commun. 2005;335:883-90 pubmed
..These complementation experiments revealed, in addition to the TBC domain, a second Tre2 region involved in the oncoprotein's lack of GAP activity: a 93-aa region flanking the TBC domain on the C-terminal side. ..
