  1. Abstract:

    RAS research has entered the world of translational and clinical science. Progress has been based on our appreciation of the role of RAS mutations in different types of cancer and the effects of these mutations on the biochemical, structural, and biophysical properties of the RAS proteins themselves, particularly KRAS, on which most attention has been focused. This knowledge base, while still growing, has enabled creative chemical approaches to targeting KRAS directly. Our understanding of RAS signaling pathways in normal and cancer cells plays an important role for developing RAS inhibitors but also continues to reveal new approaches to targeting RAS through disruption of signaling complexes and downstream pathways. © 2024.
