Guanosine Triphosphate 52-55 Rho/Rac guanine nucleotide exchange factor 2 Homo sapiens 102-105 15709769-6 2005 The release of the Ras-bound GDP was dependent upon the concentration and the structure of the incoming nucleotide, in particular, the hydrophobicity of the beta and gamma phosphate groups, suggesting that the GTP binding step is a prerequisite for GDP dissociation, is the rate-limiting step in the GEF reaction, or both. Guanosine Triphosphate 210-213 Rho/Rac guanine nucleotide exchange factor 2 Homo sapiens 300-303 15709769-9 2005 These results strongly support a GEF reaction mechanism by which nucleotide exchange occurs on Ras through a direct GTP/GDP displacement model. Guanosine Triphosphate 116-119 Rho/Rac guanine nucleotide exchange factor 2 Homo sapiens 33-36
