摘要

Ras proteins are encoded by a closely related set of genes, initially identified in acutely transforming sarcoma viruses and subsequently in human tumor cell lines. Ras genes are GTPases (guanosine triphosphatase hydrolases), which play a major role in signal transduction, cellular proliferation and transformation. Ras protein function is controlled by a guanosine triphosphate-guanosine diphosphate (GTP-GDP) cycle. The transforming Ras oncogenes are activated by point mutation, so that they encode proteins that are locked in active GTP-bound state. The immediate signaling targets of Ras proteins include not only the well-characterized Raf/mitogen activated protein (MAP) kinase cascade but also non-Raf involved pathways.;In the current study, the Ras DNA sequences (500bp) were utilized in a yeast two-hybrid system to identify unknown proteins interacting with Ras. The Yeastmaker(TM) yeast transformation system 2 (Clontech) allowed screening of a complete human cDNA library derived from normal pancreatic cells and cloned in the AD (activation domain) vector, for protein-protein interaction between the library proteins and Ras protein. First, the Ras DNA sequences were amplified from original pNdr-1r vector with cDNA specific primers and then the amplified Ras sequences were cloned within the pGBKT7 vector (BD). The Ras clones (Ras sequences in the BD vector) were transformed with yeast strain via EZ Transformation kit. The transformed yeast cell was subsequently grown and co-transformed with the cDNA library in AD vector via the Yeastmaker(TM) yeast transformation system 2 (Clontech). Future work involves the screening for protein-protein interactions and extraction of purified proteins from those clones for comparison with DNA and protein databases.;Further characterization of isolated Ras interacting proteins will certainly give new clues to determine the role of aberrant/normal Ras function in human tumorigenesis and will help define the mechanism by which Ras mediates its actions in normal and tumor cells. These novel proteins may also help develop antagonists of Ras as novel approaches for cancer treatment.
