Dai et al. report the identification and characterization of a new isoform of RhoE (RhoEα), a member of the Rho GTPase family, which is generated from the same gene by alternative translation initiation at the downstream ATG codon 46. Compared to RhoE, RhoEα does not differ in the subcellular localization but has increased protein stability and distinct molecular signalling profile.
