This cancer pathway lecture explains about the KRAS mutation leading to the development of cancer.
Mutations of the k-Ras gene arise in over ninety% of pancreatic carcinomas. No different human tumor comes shut in mutational frequency. The ras pathway is most important within the transmission of growth-selling alerts from the telephone floor receptors, ultimately toward the nucleus where these alerts have an effect on the creation and regulation of other key proteins. It's exciting that despite the fact that most mutations in genes are expected to reason their inactivation, with the Ras genes the reverse happens - they emerge as more energetic in signalling. This is considering of the engineering design of the protein. The ras sign is became off by using a molecular switch, which depends upon an enzyme endeavor. In picturesque terms, the nucleotide GTP (guanidine triphosphate) engages the swap to maintain it within the "on" state. A component to the Ras protein has an enzyme endeavor (a GTPase) which cleaves the GTP. This turns the change "off" after the temporary "on" period. Definitely, the mutations of Ras do indeed inactivate a operate, as most mutations are anticipated to do. The GTPase is inactivated via the mutations. However this now signifies that GTP continues to interact the change, and the Ras signalling function is unable to be grew to become "off". A quantity of drug firms at the moment are investigating ways to abate the signalling perform of Ras, which might provide a rational cure for pancreatic cancer.

Thank u sir for helping me a lot.. I'm doing bsc in zoology and I don't think that there is any topic left in my syllabus that haven't been seen in ur video.. Thank you so much...

You are saying that upon activation GTP hydrolyse to GDP as KRAS is GTPase. It is wrong. Actually on activation GDP to GTP bound state and on inactivation GAP play role to hydrolyse GTP to GDP state. See your video from time 5:50 to onward

Thank You Sir, you explanation is just amazing.

Your presentation is good, I like it. However, small correction for you is RAS is inactive when bound to GDP and active when it's bound to GTP. You have mentioned that RAS is inactive when GDP is disconnected...that's not the case...

There is a mistake at 5:44. Upon Ras activation GDP becomes GTP. Not other way around
