When MRAS binds GTP, it becomes active, which allows MRAS to bind the rest of the complex<ref name="Hauseman" />. MRAS is a subvariant of the RAS protein and therefore shares most of its regulatory and effector interactions<Ref name= 'Young'>Young, L., Rodriguez-Viciana, P.

While other RAS variants bind in complex with SHOC2 and PP1 to allow it to have phosphatase activity, MRAS binds the tightest. | ||
