Ligands: GNP, IPA, MG Related: 1p2s, 1p2t, 1p2v Gene: HRAS OR HRAS1 (HUMAN) Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum Disease [RASH_HUMAN] Defects in HRAS are the cause of faciocutaneoskeletal syndrome (FCSS) [MIM:218040]. A rare condition characterized by prenatally increased growth, postnatal growth deficiency, mental retardation, distinctive facial appearance, cardiovascular abnormalities (typically pulmonic stenosis, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and/or atrial tachycardia), tumor predisposition, skin and musculoskeletal abnormalities. Defects in HRAS are the cause of congenital myopathy with excess of muscle spindles (CMEMS) [MIM:218040]. CMEMS is a variant of Costello syndrome. Defects in HRAS may be a cause of susceptibility to Hurthle cell thyroid carcinoma (HCTC) [MIM:607464]. Hurthle cell thyroid carcinoma accounts for approximately 3% of all thyroid cancers. Although they are classified as variants of follicular neoplasms, they are more often multifocal and somewhat more aggressive and are less likely to take up iodine than are other follicular neoplasms. Note=Mutations which change positions 12, 13 or 61 activate the potential of HRAS to transform cultured cells and are implicated in a variety of human tumors. Defects in HRAS are a cause of susceptibility to bladder cancer (BLC) [MIM:109800]. A malignancy originating in tissues of the urinary bladder. It often presents with multiple tumors appearing at different times and at different sites in the bladder. Most bladder cancers are transitional cell carcinomas. They begin in cells that normally make up the inner lining of the bladder. Other types of bladder cancer include squamous cell carcinoma (cancer that begins in thin, flat cells) and adenocarcinoma (cancer that begins in cells that make and release mucus and other fluids). Bladder cancer is a complex disorder with both genetic and environmental influences. Note=Defects in HRAS are the cause of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Defects in HRAS are the cause of Schimmelpenning-Feuerstein-Mims syndrome (SFM) [MIM:163200]. A disease characterized by sebaceous nevi, often on the face, associated with variable ipsilateral abnormalities of the central nervous system, ocular anomalies, and skeletal defects. Many oral manifestations have been reported, not only including hypoplastic and malformed teeth, and mucosal papillomatosis, but also ankyloglossia, hemihyperplastic tongue, intraoral nevus, giant cell granuloma, ameloblastoma, bone cysts, follicular cysts, oligodontia, and odontodysplasia. Sebaceous nevi follow the lines of Blaschko and these can continue as linear intraoral lesions, as in mucosal papillomatosis.

Publication Abstract from PubMed Room temperature crystal structures of crosslinked H-Ras bound to GMPPNP were solved in 50% 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol, 60% 1,6-hexanediol, and 50% isopropanol. The disordered switch II region of Ras is ordered in the presence of 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol or 1,6-hexanediol. The overall backbone conformation of switch II in these organic solvents is the same as in the Ras-GMPPNP complexes with RalGDS, PI(3) kinase, and RasGAP, indicating a biologically relevant form. Key polar interactions that stabilize the ordered switch are enhanced in the presence of hydrophobic cosolvents. These results suggest that hydrophobic solvents can be used in general to order short biologically relevant segments of disordered regions in protein crystals by favoring H-bonding interactions between atoms that are highly solvated and mobile in aqueous solution. Organic solvents order the dynamic switch II in Ras crystals.,Buhrman G, de Serrano V, Mattos C Structure. 2003 Jul;11(7):747-51.
