Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We succeeded in large scale preparation and purification of the post-translationally lipid-modified form of H-Ras protein and various intermediates of the modification by utilizing the protein-ligation reaction catalyzed by Sortase A. Structural analyses of the GTP-bound form of post-translationally-modified H-Ras using nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography revealed that the modified C terminus established an intramolecular interaction with the N-terminal catalytic domain of H-Ras and positioned the post-translationally-attached farnesyl moiety at the proximity of the activator region, thereby forming a new binding interface for a Ras effector protein, c-Raf-1.
