Abstract excerpt
The ras-oncogene-encoded p21 protein is a G-protein that has been shown to cause the malignant transformation of normal cells and has been implicated in causing human tumors. p21 is thought to be activated by the binding of GTP in place of GDP to the protein. We have previously constructed the three-dimensional structure of the p21 protein bound to GDP from an available alpha-carbon tracing of this protein using...
