NMR 1H, 13C, 15N backbone resonance assignments of wild-type human K-Ras and its oncogenic mutants G12D and G12C bound to GTP
Human K-Ras protein, which is a member of the GTPase Ras family, hydrolyzes GTP to GDP and concomitantly converts from its active to its inactive state. It is a key oncoprotein, because several mutations, particularly those at residue position 12, occur with a high frequency in a wide range of human cancers. The K-Ras protein is therefore an important target for developing therapeutic anti-cancer agents. In this work we report the almost complete sequence-specific resonance assignments of...
