Figure 6. Inhibition of allosteric Ras binding to SOS by the PR domain.

Figure 6

(a) SOSFL(W729E) and SOSHDPC(W729E), SOS mutants that are impaired in allosteric Ras binding, show a very low level of membrane binding compared with wild-type SOS. (b) The allosteric site of SOSCatPR is autoinhibited by the PR domain and shows a lower binding affinity to Ras(Y64A) than SOSCat. Ras(Y64A) exclusively binds to the allosteric site. Linear fits were applied with the y intercept to be zero. (c) Relative binding frequency of 1 nM SOSFL at different concentrations of recombinant Grb2. Lipid composition (in mol%): egg-PC/MCC-DOPE/DOPS=94/3/3. Surface density of Ras: ∼1,200 μm−2.
