An ARF GTPase module promoting invasion and metastasis through regulating phosphoinositide metabolism

The signalling pathways underpinning cell growth and invasion use overlapping components, yet how mutually exclusive responses occur is unclear. Here, the authors show that alternate isoforms of the ARF GTPase exchange factor IQSEC1 direct phosphoinositide metabolism to control this switch.
