Introduction
RABL5 (RAB, Member RAS Oncogene Family-Like 5) is a small GTP-binding protein belonging to the Ras superfamily. This superfamily consists of various subfamilies, including R-Ras, Rap, Ral/Rec, and Rho/Rab. Rab proteins play a crucial role in the transportation of newly synthesized proteins. This process involves moving these proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum through the Golgi complex to secretory vesicles using carrier vesicles, a process requiring Rab protein functionality.
Description
Recombinant RABL5 Human, produced in E. coli, is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain. It consists of 208 amino acids (amino acids 1-185) and has a molecular weight of 23.2 kDa. The protein includes a 23 amino acid His-tag fused at the N-terminus and is purified using proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Physical Appearance
A clear, colorless solution that has been sterile filtered.
Formulation
The RABL5 solution has a concentration of 0.5 mg/mL and contains 20 mM Tris-HCl buffer with a pH of 8.0, 0.1 M NaCl, 10% glycerol, and 1 mM DTT.
Stability
For short-term storage (2-4 weeks), keep at 4°C. For longer storage, freeze at -20°C. Adding a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA) is recommended for long-term storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Purity
Purity is greater than 95% as determined by SDS-PAGE analysis.
Synonyms
Rab-like protein 5 isoform a, Rab-like protein 5, RABL5, RAB, Member RAS Oncogene Family-Like 5.
