Introduction Biological Introduction SHOC2-PP1C-MRAS is a human enzyme that is involved in regulating cell proliferation and division. The enzyme is involved in the vast RAS-MAPK pathway, which is initially activated by an extracellular growth factor binding to a membrane bound RAS GTPase[1] such as HRAS, NRAS, or KRAS. RAS-GTPases are a family of proteins that work by functioning as molecular switches. This occurs from the protein alternating between binding GTP to be active and GDP to be inactive . After activation via an extracellular growth factor, the RAS-GTPase enzyme binds GTP, which activates RAF. Structural Introduction The active holoenzyme contains 3 domains. The SHOC-2(blue), PP1C(coral), and MRAS (green) domains form the complete SMP complex. SHOC-2 is a scaffolding protein scaffolding protein that holds the other subunits in the correct orientation, allowing for the holoenzyme to be functional.
