Deskripsi

The molecular details of the RAS-RAF interaction are still not fully understood. Here, the authors present crystal structures of wild-type and mutant KRAS in complex with the RAS-binding and membrane-interacting cysteine-rich domains of RAF1, and propose a model of the membrane-bound RAS-RAF complex.
