生物活性

Recombinant Human GTPase Kras is produced by E.coli expression system and the target gene encoding Thr2-Cys185(Gly12Cys) is expressed with a 6His tag at the N-terminus. The K-Ras protein is a GTPase, which means it converts a molecule called GTP into another molecule called GDP. In this way the K-Ras protein acts like a switch that is turned on and off by the GTP and GDP molecules. K-Ras functions as a molecular on/off switch. Ras proteins bind GDP/GTP and possess intrinsic GTPase activity. Plays an important role in the regulation of cell proliferation. Plays a role in promoting oncogenic events by inducing transcriptional silencing of tumor suppressor genes (TSGs) in colorectal cancer (CRC) cells in a ZNF304-dependent manner. Besides essential function in normal tissue signaling, the mutation of a K-Ras gene is an essential step in the development of many cancers. Several germline K-Ras mutations have been found to be associated with Noonan syndrome and cardio-facio-cutaneous syndrome.

不同实验动物依据体表面积的等效剂量转换表（数据来源于FDA指南）

	小鼠	大鼠	兔	豚鼠	仓鼠	狗
重量 (kg)	0.02	0.15	1.8	0.4	0.08	10
体表面积 (m2)	0.007	0.025	0.15	0.05	0.02	0.5
Km系数	3	6	12	8	5	20

动物 A (mg/kg) = 动物 B (mg/kg) ×	动物 B的Km系数
	动物 A的Km系数

例如，依据体表面积折算法，将化合物用于小鼠的剂量20 mg/kg 换算成大鼠的剂量，需要将20 mg/kg 乘以小鼠的K_m系数（3），再除以大鼠的K_m系数（6），得到化合物用于大鼠的等效剂量为10 mg/kg。
