RIT2 antibody

Catalog No. ABIN306806

Product Details anti-RIT2 Antibody

Target: RIT2 (Ras-Like Without CAAX 2 (RIT2))

Reactivity: Human

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This RIT2 antibody is un-conjugated

Application: Western Blotting (WB)

Cross-Reactivity: Human, Mouse

Characteristics: Rit and its neuron-specific homologue, Rin, define a recently discovered subfamily of Ras-related GTPases. Rit and Rin are membrane-associated in spite of the fact that they lack a CAAX box or similar C-terminal lipidation motif. Rit and Rin display 64 % amino acid sequence identity and share a unique nine amino acid effector domain (DPTIEDAYK) that is 100 % conserved between the murine and human proteins. Although the effector domain sequences of Rit and Rin are very similar to that of Ras, Rit and Rin have been shown to interact with the known Ras-binding proteins RalGDS, Rlf and AF-6, but not the Raf kinases, RIN1 or the p110 subunit of PI3 kinase. For this reason, it has been suggested that Rit and Rin may play important roles in the regulation of signaling pathways distinct from those controlled by Ras.

Immunogen: Hybridoma produced by the fusion of splenocytes from mice immunized with full-length recombinant human Rin protein and mouse myeloma cells.

Clone: 27G2

Isotype: IgG2b

Application Details

Application Notes: Antibody detects recombinant Rin protein expressed in 293 cells by Western blot analysis at a concentration of 0.5 to 1 μg/mL. Does not cross-react with Rit protein. Optimal concentration should be evaluated by serial dilutions.
