Synonyms
Ras-related protein Rab-8B, RAB8B.
Introduction
RAB8, Member RAS Oncogene Family (RAB8B), is a low molecular mass monomeric GTPases which localize on the cytoplasmic surfaces of distinct membrane-bound organelles. RAB8 takes part in polarized vesicular trafficking and neurotransmitter release and also in cell junction dynamics in Sertoli cells. RAB proteins function in intracellular vesicle transport by aiding in the docking or fusion of vesicles with their target membranes.
Description
RAB8 Human Recombinant produced in E. coli is a single polypeptide chain containing 227 amino acids (1-204) and having a molecular mass of 25.7kDa. RAB8 is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Source
Escherichia Coli.
