RhoD is a member of the Rho gene family that interacts with protein kinases and serves as a target of activated GTPase. Rho binds GTP and plays a critical role in muscle differentiation by regulating the expression of myogenin and MEF2 genes. Furthermore, Rho is involved in endosome dynamics and reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton and plays a role in coordinating membrane transport. mDia and ROCK are downstream effectors of Rho mediating Rho action on the actin cytoskeleton; mDia produces actin filaments by nucleation and polymerization and ROCK activate myosin to cross-link them for induction of actomyosin bundles and contractility.

The Rho subgroup of the Rho GTPases consisting of RhoA, RhoB and RhoC induces a specific type of actin cytoskeleton and carry out a variety of functions in the cell. mDia and ROCK are downstream effectors of Rho mediating Rho
Early endosomes move bidirectionally between the cell periphery and the interior through a mechanism regulated by the low molecular weight GTPase RhoD. Here, we identify a novel splice variant of human Diaphanous, hDia2C, which specifically binds to RhoD and is
