The COOH-domain of the product of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae SCD25 gene elicits activation of p21-ras proteins in mammalian cells.

The evidence presented here indicates that the domain containing the COOH-terminal part of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae SCD25 gene product (C-domain), which is homologous to the COOH-terminal part of CDC25 protein, can elicit activation of mammalian ras proteins in CHO cells. Transfection of expression vectors carrying the C-domain of SCD25, but not of CDC25, promotes the GTP-bound form of ras proteins as determined by analysis of the guanine nucleotides bound to ras proteins immunoprecipitated by Y13-259 mAb, and enhances transcription of a HIV-LTR-CAT construct. This is the first demonstration of the activation of ras proteins by transfection of a single heterologous gene.[1]
