Abstract excerpt
Ras regulates signal transduction pathway function by dynamically interacting with various effectors. To understand the basis for Ras function, its conformational dynamics were measured in the absence and presence of effectors using single molecule fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between probes located on the Switch II region and GTP. The time trajectories of FRET efficiency from GTP-bound Ras...
