TPCN2 and melanoma: Here we show that the small GTPase Rab7a strongly enhances the activity of TPC2 and that effects of TPC2 on melanoma hallmarks, in vitro and in vivo strongly depend on the presence of Rab7a, which controls TPC2 activity to modulate GSK3β, β-Catenin, and MITF, a major regulator of melanoma development and progression.
