The Rho GTPases are small GTP binding proteins that regulate basic biological processes such as cell locomotion, cell division and morphogenesis by promoting cytoskeleton-based changes in the cell cortex. These different functions are driven by the ability of Rho GTPases to self-organize, forming diverse spatiotemporal cortical patterns.
