 cytosolic human protein that provides two principal activities:
  • Inactivation of Ras from its active GTP
    Guanosine triphosphate
    Guanosine-5'-triphosphate is a purine nucleoside triphosphate. It can act as a substrate for the synthesis of RNA during the transcription process...

    -bound form to its unactive GDP
    Guanosine diphosphate
    Guanosine diphosphate, abbreviated GDP, is a nucleoside diphosphate. It is an ester of pyrophosphoric acid with the nucleoside guanosine. GDP consists of the pyrophosphate group, the pentose sugar ribose, and the nucleobase guanine....

    -bound form by enhancing the endogenous GTPase
    GTPase
    GTPases are a large family of hydrolase enzymes that can bind and hydrolyze guanosine triphosphate . The GTP binding and hydrolysis takes place in the highly conserved G domain common to all GTPases.-Functions:...

Domains

RasGAP contains one SH3 domain
SH3 domain

Interactions

RAS p21 protein activator 1 has been shown to interact
