Conformational ensemble dependent lipid recognition and segregation by prenylated intrinsically disordered regions in small GTPases

M. K. Araya, A. A. Gorfe

This study shows that conformational plasticity of prenylated intrinsically disordered regions (PIDRs) determines lipid sorting in small GTPases, with sequence outside the polybasic domain modulating this process.

Membrane curvature sensing of the lipid-anchored K-Ras small GTPases

H. Liang, H. Mu, F. Jean-Francois, B. Lakshman, S. Sarkar-Banerjee, Y. Zhuang, Y. Zeng, W. Gao, D. V. Nissley, A. A. Gorfe, W. Zhao, Y. Zhou

This study shows that K-Ras and H-Ras isoforms respond differently to plasma membrane curvature, with K-Ras favoring less curved membranes and H-Ras favoring more curved membranes, mediated by phospholipid sorting.

Discovery of allosteric non-covalent KRAS inhibitors that bind with sub-micromolar affinity and disrupt effector binding

M. J. McCarthy, C. V. Pagba, P. Prakash, A. Naji, D. van der Hoeven, H. Liang, A. K. Gupta, Y. Zhou, K.-J. Cho, J. F. Hancock, A. A. Gorfe

This study identifies a pyrazolopyrimidine-based allosteric KRAS inhibitor with sub-micromolar affinity that disrupts effector binding and inhibits cancer cell growth.
