Abstact

Gem, a member of the Rad,Gem/Kir subfamily of small G-proteins, has unique sequence features. We report here the crystallographic structure determination of the Gem G-domain in complex with nucleotide to 2.4 A resolution. Although the basic Ras protein fold is maintained, the Gem switch regions emphatically differ from the Ras paradigm. Our ensuing biochemical characterization indicates that Gem G-domain markedly prefers GDP over GTP. Two known functions of Gem are distinctly affected by spatially separated clusters of mutations.
