Immunogen
The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human RAB2B. AA range:103-152
Specificity
Rab 2B Polyclonal Antibody detects endogenous levels of Rab 2B protein.
Formulation
Liquid in PBS containing 50% glycerol, 0.5% BSA and 0.02% sodium azide.
Dilution rate
WB 1:500-2000;IHC-p 1:50-300; ELISA 2000-20000
Purification process (Immunogen)
The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen.
Background
Members of the Rab protein family are nontransforming monomeric GTP-binding proteins of the Ras superfamily that contain 4 highly conserved regions involved in GTP binding and hydrolysis. Rab proteins are prenylated, membrane-bound proteins involved in vesicular fusion and trafficking; see MIM 179508.[supplied by OMIM, Apr 2006],
Function
function:Required for protein transport from the endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi complex .,similarity:Belongs to the small GTPase superfamily. Rab family.,tissue specificity:Expressed in kidney, prostate, lung, liver, thymus, colon, pancreas, and skeletal muscle, and low levels in placenta. Not detected in heart, brain, spleen, testis, ovary, small intestine and leukocyte.,
