cytotoxic necrotizing factor 1 | activation of Rho proteins by the cytotoxic necrotizing factor 1 (CNF1) from Escherichia coli, while the isomeric cytotoxicnecrotizing factor from Yersinia pseudotuberculosis (CNFy) drives GTP-loading of basal RhoB but fails to cause activation of the rhoB promoter and thus its expression. CNF1 inhibits cytokinesis and induces the formation of bi-nucleated (tetraploid) cells. Cytotoxic-necrotizing factors encompass a class of auto-transporter toxins produced by Escherichia coli (CNF1-3) or Yersinia pseudotuberculosis (CNFy). CNF1 specifically deamidates RhoA. CNF1-induced RhoB response depends on the deamidation of Rho proteins | Mus musculus | |

Homo sapiens | RhoB is the only member of the Rho subfamily of small GTPases, which is classified as an immediate early gene product. RhoB is up-regulated in response to growth factors as well as cytotoxic and genotoxic agents. Clostridial glucosylating toxins evoke pronounced RhoB expression, based on the inactivation of Rho/Ras proteins. Long lasting expression of RhoB in cultured cells upon activation of Rho proteins by the cytotoxic necrotizing factor 1 (CNF1) from Escherichia coli. Deamidase-deficient CNF1-C866S fails to activate the rhoB promoter, CNF1-C866S only faintly induces expression of rhoB mRNA and RhoB protein. Critical role of Rac1 in CNF1-induced RhoB expression, overview | up |

malfunction | upon long term treatment with CNF1, RhoB-/- mouse embryonic fibroblasts exhibit DNA fragmentation, phosphatidylserine exposure, and loss of membrane integrity, while RhoB+/- MEFs persist as bi-nucleated (tetraploid) cells without any signs of cell death | Mus musculus |
physiological function | a pathway involving GTPase Rac1 positively regulates the activity of the rhoB promoter and RhoB expression. Critical role of transcriptional activation in CNF1-induced RhoB expression. Regulation of the rhoB promoter, overview. RhoB dependent suppression of CNF1-induced polyploidy and cell death | Mus musculus |
