The role of Rab3a in secretory vesicle docking requires association/dissociation of guanidine phosphates and Munc18-1.

Rab3a is a small GTPase that binds selectively to secretory vesicles and switches between active, GTP-bound and inactive, GDP-bound conformations. In yeast, Rab and SM-genes interact genetically to promote vesicle targeting/fusion. We tested different Rab3a conformations and genetic interactions wit...
