Active Ras Small G-Protein Analysis with Trusted Activation Assay Tools

 

 The Ras small G-proteins act as molecular switches that transmit cellular signals through an array of effector proteins. Ras plays an important role in many cellular functions including the control of cell proliferation and differentiation. The Ras switch operates by alternating between an active, GTP-bound state and an inactive, GDP-bound state. Understanding the mechanisms that regulate activation / inactivation of the GTPases is of obvious biological significance and is a subject of intense investigation.

Rac1 And Cdc42 Pathways As Pivotal Axis In Future Metastatic Cancer Therapy

The appearance of Rac and Cdc42 proteins on the radar of the medical scientific community started in the 1990’s with seminal papers by Professor Alan Hall’s laboratory at MRC, UK. They identified Rac and Cdc42 small G-proteins (R&C) as central regulators of cell motility, shape and protrusions (lamellipodia and filopodia)1,2. Now several decades later, the concept has been fully proven in a multitude of publications (see refs. in these reviews 3 & 4), and the realization that these proteins are central to cancer cell motility and invasion has led the field to explore them as candidates for therapeutic intervention.....
