Molecule List for pathway Ras (Pathway Number 231)

 Name Initial Conc. (uM) Volume (fL) Buffered
1CaM-GEF01000No
    See Farnsworth et al Nature 376 524-527 1995
2GAP0.0021000No
    GTPase-activating proteins. See Boguski and McCormick. Turn off Ras by helping to hydrolyze bound GTP. This one is probably NF1, ie., Neurofibromin as it is inhibited by AA and lipids, and expressed in neural cells. p120-GAP is also a possible candidate, but is less regulated. Both may exist at similar levels. See Eccleston et al JBC 268(36) pp27012-19 Level=.002
3GAP*01000No
   
4GDP-Ras0.21000No
    GDP bound form. See Rosen et al Neuron 12 1207-1221 June 1994. the activation loop is based on Boguski and McCormick Nature 366 643-654 93 Assume Ras is present at about the same level as craf-1, 0.2 uM. Hallberg et al JBC 269:6 3913-3916 1994 estimate upto 5-10% of cellular Raf is assoc with Ras. Given that only 5-10% of Ras is GTP-bound, we need similar amounts of Ras as Raf.
5GEF*01000No
    phosphorylated and thereby activated form of GEF. See, e.g. Orita et al JBC 268:34 25542-25546 1993, Gulbins et al. It is not clear whether there is major specificity for tyr or ser/thr.
6GEF-Gprot-bg01000No
    Guanine nucleotide exchange factor. This activates raf by exchanging bound GDP with GTP. I have left the GDP/GTP out of this reaction, it would be trivial to put them in. See Boguski & McCormick. Possible candidate molecules: RasGRF, smgGDS, Vav (in dispute). rasGRF: Kcat= 1.2/min Km = 680 nM smgGDS: Kcat: 0.37 /min, Km = 220 nM. vav: Turnover up over baseline by 10X,
7GTP-Ras01000No
    Only a very small fraction (7% unstim, 15% stim) of ras is GTP-bound. Gibbs et al JBC 265(33) 20437
8inact-GEF0.11000No
    Assume that SoS is present only at 50 nM. Revised to 100 nM to get equil to experimentally known levels.
9inact-GEF*01000No
    Phosphorylation-inactivated form of GEF. See Hordijk et al JBC 269:5 3534-3538 1994 and Buregering et al EMBO J 12:11 4211-4220 1993
