On page 829, Watson et al. find that the small GTP-binding protein TC10 must be in a lipid raft compartment to impact insulin signaling. Such spatial control may be one way in which cells create a distinct reponse from activation of a common set of signal transduction proteins.8 n9 }- u6 b7 f, D: J- x- q

Insulin acts on the insulin receptor to trigger translocation of the GLUT4 transporter to the plasma membrane, resulting in increased glucose uptake. In previous studies, activation of both PI 3-kinase and TC10 were implicated in transducing a signal from activated receptor to GLUT4.. [) d1 ~7 K8 c$ b W7 w5 p

Although the current authors and others have worked out a complex series of links from the activated receptor to TC10, it seems that these links can only be set up productively when the relevant proteins are concentrated in a specific domain.(TC10 (green) colocalizes with caveolin () |
