STRUCTURE OF PLC EPSILON RAS ASSOCIATION DOMAIN WITH HRAS

Overview

Ras proteins signal to a number of distinct pathways by interacting with, diverse effectors. Studies of ras/effector interactions have focused on, three classes, Raf kinases, ral guanylnucleotide-exchange factors, and, phosphatidylinositol-3-kinases. Here we describe ras interactions with, another effector, the recently identified phospholipase C epsilon, (PLCepsilon). We solved structures of PLCepsilon RA domains (RA1 and RA2), by NMR and the structure of the RA2/ras complex by X-ray crystallography., Although the similarity between ubiquitin-like folds of RA1 and RA2 proves, that they are homologs, only RA2 can bind ras. Some of the features of the, RA2/ras interface are unique to PLCepsilon, while the ability to make, contacts with both switch I and II regions of ras is shared only ... [(full description)]
