The overall architecture has PP1C and MRAS bound within the concave surface of SHOC2, leaving the catalytic site of PP1C and the GTP binding cleft in MRAS exposed.

In complex, PP1C is tasked with being the catalytic domain and removing a phosphate from RAF. The last piece of the complex is SHOC2, which is responsible for holding and stabilizing MRAS and PP1C <Ref name= 'Hahn'> Kwon, J. J., & Hahn, W. C.
