Time-Resolved Crystallography Reveals the Mechanisms of GTP hydrolysis for N-RAS and the Oncogenic Mutants G12C, G12V and Q61L
2025-08-23
Abstract excerpt
The RAS family of small GTPases are molecular switches that convey downstream signals regulating cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. The signaling competent GTP-bound RAS transitions to its inactive GDP-bound form through γ-phosphate hydrolysis. Oncogenic RAS mutations hamper GTP hydrolysis and are present in up to 30% of all human cancers. Structural studies of RAS proteins bound to non-hydrolysab...
