REM1 Proteins and Enzymes

The Ras-encoded family of proteins bind GDP and GTP with high affinity. They possess a low level of intrinsic GTPase activity that increases more than 100-fold when interacting with cytosolic GTPase activating protein (GAP). Ras family members include H-Ras, K-Ras, N-Ras, M-Ras, R-Ras, ERas, Rheb, TC 21, RASL11B and Rad (Ras associated with diabetes) GTPase.Rad GTPase is a GTP-binding protein that is similar to Ras but has unique features. Unlike other small GTPases, Rad GTPase lacks typical ...
