RAS Proteins and Their Regulators in Human Disease
Open accessAbstract
RAS proteins are binary switches, cycling between ON and OFF states during signal transduction. These switches are normally tightly controlled, but in RAS-related diseases, such as cancer, RASopathies, and many psychiatric disorders, mutations in the RAS genes or their regulators render RAS proteins persistently active. The structural basis of the switch and many of the pathways that RAS controls are well known, but the precise mechanisms by which RAS proteins function are less clear. All RAS biology occurs in membranes: a precise understanding of RAS' interaction with membranes is essential to understand RAS action and to intervene in RAS-driven diseases.

Farnesylation at the position 185 cysteine residue results in KRAS anchoring at the plasma membrane, initiating the activation of KRAS and its downstream signaling.
“In particular, farnesylation at the position 185 cysteine residue results in KRAS anchoring at the plasma membrane, initiating the activation of KRAS and its downstream signaling42.”

The “RAS Proteins in the Membrane” section says farnesylation of a C-terminal cysteine facilitates membrane association, which is essential for downstream signaling. Our copy does not identify that cysteine as residue 185 or say that farnesylation itself activates KRAS; it also describes additional membrane-targeting and processing steps. Page numbers are unavailable in our copy. (LLM, conf=0.86)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
