Diverse cellular functions are controlled by RhoA-GTPases, which are activated by trimeric G proteins <i>via</i> RhoGEFs, among others. In this study, we focused on the signaling from GPCRs to RhoA <i>via</i> Gα<sub>13</sub> and leukemia-associated RhoGEF (LARG). The activation of Gα<sub>13</sub> was elucidated in living cells with high temporal and spatial resolution by means of FRET. The inactivation after agonist withdrawal occurred in the same range (<i>t</i><sub>1/2</sub> = 25.3 ± 2.2 s; me ...[more]
