PHYSICAL PROPERTIES

STRUCTURE

motifs/domains	terminating with a CAAX motif, clipped off by RCE1, an integral membrane endoprotease of the endoplasmic reticulum
	C-terminal HVR, especially the flexible linker domain with two consecutive proline residues Pro173 and Pro174, is a critical domain contributing to activation of HRAS and its invasive potential in breast epithelial cells

	intracellular,cytoplasm,cytosolic
	intracellular,nucleus
text	attached to the membrane by a lipid anchor and shuttles between the internal side of plasma membrane and the golgi

basic FUNCTION	binding GDP/GTP and possessing intrinsic GTPase activity
	tumor type-specific mutation spectrum of Ras genesis dictated by their regulation of expression and that the altered Ras proteins that can be palmitoylated act as particularly potent oncoproteins
	potent cell-autonomous negative regulator of the HH pathway, supporting an important role for paracrine HH signaling in tumors harboring KRAS mutations, such as those in lung and pancreatic cancer
	activated HRAS can be found in primary cilia, the central organelle of HH signal transduction, but functions in a cilium-independent manner and interferes with GLI2 function and GLI3 processing
	could modulate fibroblast activity by reducing ECM synthesis and upregulating both proliferation and migration
	proto-oncogene that activates a variety of different pathways including the extracellular-signal-regulated kinase (ERK)/mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway
	involved primarily in regulating cell growth, division and apoptosis
	relays signals from outside of the cell to the cell nucleus
	newly recognized role for endomembrane-localized HRAS in mediating nitric oxide-dependent proangiogenic signaling

INTERACTION

DNA

small molecule

protein	interaction with PMAIP1 and BECN1 (HRAS-induced expression of PMAIP1 and Beclin-1 promotes autophagic cell death)
	DPP9 and DPP8, associate with HRAS, a key signal molecule of the EGF receptor signaling pathway, suggesting an important signaling role of DPP9 in the regulation of survival and proliferation pathways
	BNIP3 is a regulatory target of HRAS
	regulates BRIP1 expression to induce dissociation of BRCA1 from chromatin, inhibit DNA repair, and promote senescence
	PEA15 positively regulates HRAS/ERK signaling and increases the proliferation of HRAS-transformed epithelial cells through enhanced PLD1 expression and activation
	CHST11 is a negatively regulated target gene of HRAS signaling
	novel interplay between KRAS and HRAS, with possible implications for colorectal carcinogenesis
	critical role of BACH1 in cell transformation and tumor growth induced by activated HRAS
	TP53BP2 modulates oncogenic HRAS-induced autophagic activity to dictate the cellular response to HRAS: to proliferate or senescence
	HRAS mediates VEGFA-induced activation of endothelial nitric-oxide synthase (NOS3) and migratory response of human endothelial cells
	CIP2A physically associates with HRAS, which leads to the activation of the MEK/ERK signaling pathway and promotes EMT and cervical-cancer progression
	HRAS downregulated thymine-DNA glycosylase (TDG), a DNA demethylation enzyme, by inhibiting the interaction of transcription activator ING4 with TDG promoter
	role for CIB1 in neoplastic transformation, revaeling a novel mechanism facilitating oncogenic signalling by HRAS and PAPSS1
	LZTR1-mediated ubiquitination inhibited RAS signaling by attenuating its association with the membrane
	LZTR1 facilitates polyubiquitination and degradation of RAS-GTPases MRAS, HRAS, NRAS, and KRAS
	cytosolic EPCAM cooperates with HRAS to regulate epithelial to mesenchymal transition through ZEB1
