IMP (BRAP) is a RasGTP-interacting protein. It is constitutively bound to KSR1 blocking the enhancement of ERK activation (KSR1 is kept in an inactivated state) maybe recruiting KSR1 to microdomains inaccessible to activators of its function.
This could be a mechanism to limit the engagement of ERK cascade in the absence of Ras activation.

RasGTP interacts with IMP cleaving it from KSR1. In this way KSR1 can play its role of scaffolding protein for ERK cascade.
Ras activation causes the cleavage of 14-3-3 from KSR1 (not modelled) exposing the membrane-targeting C1 domain as well as the docking site for ERK1/2.
