Previously we found that negatively charged residues at positions 62, 63, and 69 of H-Ras are involved in binding to the CDC25 guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF). Using site-directed mutagenesis, we have changed conserved, positively charged residues of CDC25GEF to glutamic acid. We find the nonfunctional CDC25R1374E mutant and the nonfunctional H-RasE63K mutant cooperate in suppression of the loss of CDC25 function in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Also, peptides corresponding to residues 1364 to 1383 of CDC25GEF inhibit interaction between GEFs and H-Ras. We propose that residues 1374 of CDC25GEF and 63 of H-Ras form an ion pair and that when this ion pair is reversed, functional interaction can still occur.
