Differential activation of yeast adenylate cyclase by wild-type and mutant RAS proteins

Comparative Study

Differential activation of yeast adenylate cyclase by wild-type and mutant RAS proteins

D Broek et al. Cell. 1985 Jul.

Abstract

In these experiments we demonstrate that purified RAS proteins, whether derived from the yeast RAS1 or RAS2 or the human H-ras genes, activate yeast adenylate cyclase in the presence of guanine nucleotides. These results confirm the prediction of earlier genetic and biochemical data and for the first time provide a complete biochemical assay for RAS protein function. Furthermore, we observe a biochemical difference between the RAS2 and RAS2val19 proteins in their ability to activate adenylate cyclase after preincubation with GTP.
