1. A method of selecting a Ras antagonist, the method comprising:
- (a) combining in a reaction mixture a mutant Ras, a competition probe, and a test compound; and
(b) detecting a decrease in binding between the mutant Ras and the competition probe as compared to binding of the competition probe to the mutant Ras in an absence of the test compound;
wherein;
i. the mutant Ras comprises a truncated or full-length sequence according to SEQ ID NO;
1, SEQ ID NO;
2, SEQ ID NO;
3, or SEQ ID NO;
4, that is mutated to have up to 20 mutations including mutation of SEQ ID NO;
1, SEQ ID NO;
2, SEQ ID NO;
3, or SEQ ID NO;
4 at amino acid residue 62, 92, or 95 to cysteine;
ii. the competition probe is capable of binding and covalently modifying the mutant Ras; and
iii. the decrease in binding between the mutant Ras and the competition probe is indicative of Ras antagonist activity of the test compound.
