METHODS OF MODULATING BINDING OF SON OF SEVENLESS TO PHOSPHATIDIC ACID AND IDENTIFYING COMPOUNDS THAT MODULATE SUCH BINDING

摘要

The present invention relates to methods of modulating binding of Son of sevenless to phosphatidic acid and identifying compounds that modulate such binding. In particular, the present invention relates to a method of controlling pleckstrin homology domain-dependent membrane recruitment of Son of sevenless or histone folds domain-dependent membrane recruitment of Son of sevenless. Also disclosed are methods of controlling Ras and treating a subject for a condition mediated by Ras. The present invention also relates to a method of identifying compounds potentially effective in treating a condition mediated by Ras.
