Abstract

Alleles Animals Biotin - chemistry Genes, ras Mice Proto-Oncogene Proteins p21(ras) - genetics Streptavidin Mutation
KRAS mutations occur in approximately ~50% of colorectal cancers (CRCs) and are associated with poor prognosis and resistance to therapy. While these most common mutations found at amino acids G12, G13, Q61, and A146 have long been considered oncogenic drivers of CRC, emerging clinical data suggest that each mutation may possess different biological functions, resulting in varying consequences in oncogenesis. Currently, the mechanistic underpinnings associated with each allelic variation remain unclear. Elucidating the unique effectors of each KRAS mutant could both increase the understanding of KRAS biology and provide a basis for allele-specific therapeutic opportunities. Biotinylation identification (BioID) is a method to label and identify proteins located in proximity of a protein of interest. These proteins are captured through the strong interaction between the biotin label and streptavidin bead and subsequently identified by mass spectrometry. Here, we developed a protocol using CRISPR-mediated gene editing to generate endogenous BioID -tagged Kras and Kras isogenic murine colon epithelial cell lines to identify unique protein proximity partners by BioID.
