Activated Ras recruits Raf protein–serine/threonine kinase from the cytosol to the plasma membrane where kinases activate Raf. ERK, a member of the MAPK family, is activated by Raf through MAP/ERK kinase (MEK). In turn, the activated ERK phosphorylates and activates multiple other proteins, including other protein kinases. Activated ERK also translocates into the nucleus where it phosphorylates and activates transcription factors including Elk-1. Guanosine triphosphate hydrolysis by GTPase-activating proteins (GAPs) inactivates Ras.
