KRas
Ras proteins bind GDP/GTP and possess intrinsic GTPase activity. Plays an important role in the regulation of cell proliferation. Plays a role in promoting oncogenic events by inducing transcriptional silencing of tumor suppressor genes (TSGs) in colorectal cancer (CRC) cells in a ZNF304-dependent manner. Belongs to the small GTPase superfamily. Ras family. 2 alternatively spliced human isoforms have been reported. Note: This description may include information from UniProtKB.
