Product Specs

Introduction
RAB5B, a member of the Rab small G protein family, plays a crucial role in endocytosis and the recycling of cell surface molecules. It interacts with RIN2 and RIN3, which potentially act as GEFs, to regulate its function. Notably, suppressing RAB5B expression has been found to disrupt the neuroprotective effects mediated by group I metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs).
Description
This product consists of a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain of RAB5B, a human recombinant protein. Produced in E. coli, it is fused with a 23 amino acid His tag at the N-terminus. This protein encompasses 238 amino acids (1-215 a.a.) and possesses a molecular mass of 26.1 kDa. The purification process involves proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Physical Appearance
A clear, sterile solution.
Formulation
The provided solution contains RAB5B (1 mg/ml) in a buffer consisting of 20mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0), 1mM DTT, 20% glycerol, and 0.2M NaCl.
Stability
For optimal storage, refrigerate the solution at 4°C if it will be used within 2-4 weeks. For longer-term storage, freeze the solution at -20°C. To further enhance stability during long-term storage, consider adding a carrier protein such as 0.1% HSA or BSA. It's important to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Purity
The purity of this product exceeds 90.0%, as determined by SDS-PAGE analysis.
Synonyms
Ras-related protein Rab-5B, RAB5B.

Product Science Overview

Gene and Protein Information
  • Gene Name: RAB5B
  • Protein Name: Ras-related protein Rab-5B
  • Chromosomal Location: Chromosome 12, cytoband q13.2
  • Protein Class: Enzymes, RAS pathway-related proteins
Function

RAB5B is primarily involved in protein transport and is believed to play a crucial role in vesicular trafficking . It enables GDP binding activity, GTP-dependent protein binding activity, and GTPase activity . These functions are essential for the regulation of membrane trafficking, particularly in the early endosome .

Biological Processes

RAB5B is involved in several biological processes, including:

  • Antigen processing and presentation
  • Plasma membrane to endosome transport
  • Infectious disease pathways
  • Rab regulation of trafficking
Cellular Localization

The RAB5B protein is located in the endosome and extracellular exosome . This localization is consistent with its role in vesicular trafficking and protein transport.

Associated Diseases

Mutations or dysregulation of the RAB5B gene have been associated with several diseases, including:

  • Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis 1 (ALS1)
  • Cardiofaciocutaneous Syndrome
Pathways

RAB5B is involved in various pathways, including:

  • Infectious disease pathways
  • Rab regulation of trafficking
Research and Clinical Relevance

Given its role in essential cellular processes and its association with significant diseases, RAB5B is a subject of ongoing research. Understanding its function and regulation can provide insights into the mechanisms of diseases like ALS and Cardiofaciocutaneous Syndrome, potentially leading to new therapeutic targets.
