  • Title: The mechanism of guanosine nucleotide hydrolysis by p21 c-Ha-ras. The stereochemical course of the GTPase reaction.
    Author: Feuerstein J, Goody RS, Webb MR.
    Journal: J Biol Chem; 1989 Apr 15; 264(11):6188-90. PubMed ID: 2539374.
    Abstract:
    The use of guanosine 5'-O-(gamma-thio)triphosphate as a substrate for p21 c-Ha-ras was established. By using chirally labeled [gamma-17O,18O]guanosine 5'-O-(gamma-thio)triphosphate, the stereochemical course of the GTPase reaction was determined. The analysis shows that the hydrolysis occurs with inversion at the gamma-phosphorus. This shows that the most likely mechanism is a single step, in-line transfer, without a phosphoenzyme or other phosphorylated intermediate.
