'''GTPase KRas''' (KRas) plays a critical role in the control of cellular growth. Kras stands for Kirsten rat sarcoma virus gene. KRas is a small GTPase that functions as molecular switches by alternating
 +
between inactive GDP-bound state and active GTP-bound state<ref>PMID:2406906</ref>.

A single mutation of KRas G12C activates KRas and is implicated with various malignancies including lung adenocarcinoma, mutinous adenoma, ductal carcinoma of the pancreas and colorectal carcinoma<ref>PMID:29187496</ref>. KRas mutations are the most common genetic abnormalities in cancer.
