MRAS is initially bound to GDP causing it to be in its inactive state. This form cannot bind to the SHOC2-PP1C complex due to steric clashing. Once GDP is exchanged for GTP to activate the protein, <scene name='95/952716/conformational changes/1'>SHOC2-MRAS (residues)</scene> occur within the switch I and switch II regions to allow <scene name='95/952716/MRAS to interact with SHOC2/2'>SHOC2-MRAS(full-image)</scene>. These <scene name='95/952716/Scho2-mras-interactions/1'>interactions</scene> include hydrogen bonds and pi stacking. The primary hydrogen bonds are R288-Q71 and R177-E47.

The interactions between PP1C and MRAS are mediated by four main hydrogen bonds: R188-D48, M190-Q35, D197-H53, Q198-K36. It is unclear whether PP1C must bind to SHOC2 before MRAS binds or if PP1C and MRAS can bind to SHOC2 at the same time. | The interactions between PP1C and MRAS are mediated by four main hydrogen bonds: R188-D48, M190-Q35, D197-H53, Q198-K36.
