Role of IQGAP1, a target of the small GTPases Cdc42 and Rac1, in regulation of E-cadherin-mediated cell-cell adhesion. Science. 281:1998;832-835. This paper reported for the first time the mechanism by which the Rho family GTPases including Cdc42 and Rac1 regulate E-cadherin-mediated cell-cell adhesion. IQGAP1, which is an effector of Cdc42 and Rac1 appears to regulate cell-cell adhesion through the cadherin-catenin pathway acting downstream of Cdc42 and Rac1.

J Biol Chem. 274:1999;26044-26050. This paper described that Cdc42 and Rac1 negatively regulate the IQGAP1 function by inhibiting the interaction of IQGAP1 with β-catenin, leading to stabilisation of the cadherin-catenins complex.
