The G protein signaling regulator RGS3 enhances the GTPase activity of KRAS
Open accessAbstract
Paving the way for KRAS inhibitors: KRAS is a key oncogene in multiple cancer types, but existing inhibitors target only a mutant form of KRAS containing the G12C mutation, and their function presents a mechanistic conundrum. It is known that KRAS G12C inhibitors bind to the oncoprotein in its inactive form; however, KRAS mutations such as G12C interfere with the action of proteins that normally help it hydrolyze GTP to achieve the inactive state. Li et al . have now identified a protein that enhances GTP hydrolysis by mutant KRAS, helping to explain the clinical activity of current drugs targeting this oncoprotein (see the Perspective by Cox and Der). —YN

ARS-853 validated the drug concept in vitro and demonstrated that KRASG12C is still cycling in cells.
“the compound ARS-853 (14), which validated the drug concept in vitro and demonstrated that KRASG12C is indeed still cycling in cells (15, 16)”
RGS3 can enhance mutant KRAS GTPase activity, and susceptibility to RGS3 rather than intrinsic GTPase activity is the main determinant of how much a KRAS mutant occupies the GDP-bound state and thus its sensitivity to KRAS-off inhibitors.
“A study published in 2021 indicates that regulator of G protein signalling 3 (RGS3), an atypical GAP that lacks the characteristic catalytic arginine finger, can enhance the GTPase activity of mutant KRAS56. This important finding implies that susceptibility to the action of RGS3, instead of intrinsic GTPase activity, is the predominant determinant of the extent to which a given KRAS mutant occup”

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.
