While this switch is well understood for an individual protein, how regulatory networks produce intracellular activity patterns is currently not known. Here, we combine in vitro reconstitution experiments with computational modeling to study a minimal Rab5 activation network. We find that the molecular interactions in this system give rise to a positive feedback and bistable collective switching of Rab5. Furthermore, we find that switching near the critical point is intrinsically stochastic and provide evidence that controlling the inactive population of Rab5 on the membrane can shape the network response. Notably, we demonstrate that collective switching can spread on the membrane surface as a traveling wave of Rab5 activation. Together, our findings reveal how biochemical signaling networks control vesicle trafficking pathways and how their nonequilibrium properties define the spatiotemporal organization of the cell."}],"doi":"10.1073/pnas.1921027117","main_file_link":[{"open_access":"1","url":"https://doi.org/10.1101/776567"}],"oa":1,"publisher":"Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences","type":"journal_article","author":[{"full_name":"Bezeljak, Urban","orcid":"0000-0003-1365-5631","first_name":"Urban","last_name":"Bezeljak","id":"2A58201A-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87"},{"full_name":"Loya, Hrushikesh","last_name":"Loya","first_name":"Hrushikesh"},{"last_name":"Kaczmarek","id":"36FA4AFA-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","first_name":"Beata M","full_name":"Kaczmarek, Beata M"},{"full_name":"Saunders, Timothy E.","first_name":"Timothy E.","last_name":"Saunders"},{"first_name":"Martin","id":"462D4284-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","last_name":"Loose","orcid":"0000-0001-7309-9724","full_name":"Loose, Martin"}],"related_material":{"record":[{"status":"public","relation":"dissertation_contains","id":"8341"}],"link":[{"relation":"press_release","url":"https://ist.ac.at/en/news/proteins-as-molecular-switches/","description":"News on IST Homepage"}]},"intvolume":"       117","publication_identifier":{"eissn":["1091-6490"],"issn":["0027-8424"]},"date_published":"2020-03-24T00:00:00Z","date_updated":"2023-09-07T13:17:06Z","quality_controlled":"1","publication_status":"published"}
