Ras proteins are membrane-anchored GTPases that regulate {key|important|crucial|essential} cellular signaling networks. It has been {recently|lately|not too long ago} shown that {different|various|distinct|diverse|unique|distinctive} anionic lipid {types|kinds|varieties|sorts|forms} can {affect|impact|have an effect on|influence} the properties of Ras {in terms of|when it comes to|with regards to} dimerization/clustering {on the|around the} cell membrane. {To understand|To know} the effects of anionic lipids on {key|important|crucial|essential} spatiotemporal properties of dimeric K-Ras4B, we {perform|carry out|execute} all-atom molecular dynamics simulations {of the|from the|in the|on the|with the|of your} dimer K-Ras4B {in the|within the|inside the} presence and absence of Raf[RBD/CRD] effectors on two model anionic lipid membranes: {one|1|a single|one particular} containing 78% mol DOPC, 20% mol DOPS, and 2% mol PIP2 and {another|an additional|yet another|one more|a different|a further} {one|1|a single|one particular} with enhanced concentration of anionic lipids containing 50% mol DOPC, 40% mol DOPS, and 10% mol PIP2. {Analysis|Evaluation} of our {results|outcomes|final results|benefits} unveils the orientational space of dimeric K-Ras4B and shows that the stability {of the|from the|in the|on the|with the|of your} dimer is enhanced {on the|around the} membrane containing a {high|higher} concentration of anionic lipids {in the|within the|inside the} absence of Raf effectors. This enhanced stability {is also|can also be} observed {in the|within the|inside the} presence of Raf[RBD/CRD] effectors {although|even though|though|despite the fact that|while} {it is|it’s|it really is|it truly is|it can be|it is actually} not influenced by the concentration of anionic lipids {in the|within the|inside the} membrane, but rather {on the|around the} {ability|capability|capacity|potential} of Raf[CRD] to anchor {to the|towards the|for the} membrane. We {generate|produce|create} dominant K-Ras4B conformations by Markov state modeling and yield the population of states {according to|based on|in accordance with|in line with|as outlined by} the K-Ras4B orientation {on the|around the} membrane. For the membrane containing anionic lipids, we observe correlations {between|in between|among|amongst|involving} the diffusion of K-Ras4B and PIP2 and anchoring of anionic lipids {to the|towards the|for the} Raf[CRD] domain. We conclude that the presence of effectors {with the|using the|with all the|together with the} Raf[CRD] domain anchoring {on the|around the} membrane {as well|also|too|at the same time} {as the|because the} membrane composition {both|each} influence the conformational stability {of the|from the|in the|on the|with the|of your} K-Ras4B dimer, enabling the preservation of {crucial|essential|vital|critical|important} interface interactions. 1-(Difluoromethyl)-4-iodo-1H-pyrazole Order 1643573-74-3 web PMID:23789847
