Molecular Dynamic Simulations and Computational Analysis of KRAS Dimerization

The function of the Ras proteins is the recruitment and activation of the effectors which play role  in cell signalling. Recent studies show that Ras can dimerize using two interfaces; α homodimer and β homodimer. We aim to create a mutation in α homodimer and show the effect of the mutation on the Ras dimerization.
