RAP2A recombinant protein
Recombinant Human RAP2A, Member RAS Oncogene Family
Sterile Filtered colorless solution.
Introduction: RAP2A belongs to the RAS oncogene family and a Ras-like small G protein. The RAP2A protein shares 60% identity with Rap1A and exhibits a carboxy-terminal CAAX motif and 2 upstream cysteines similar to those of the H-Ras, K-Ras and N-Ras proteins. In contrast with Rap1A and Rap1B, overexpression of RAP2A doesn't obstruct the Ras signaling pathway.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
Uniprot Description
RAP2A: Small GTP-binding protein which cycles between a GDP- bound inactive and a GTP-bound active form. In its active form interacts with and regulates several effectors including MAP4K4, MINK1 and TNIK. Part of a signaling complex composed of NEDD4, RAP2A and TNIK which regulates neuronal dendrite extension and arborization during development. More generally, it is part of several signaling cascades and may regulate cytoskeletal rearrangements, cell migration, cell adhesion and cell spreading. Belongs to the small GTPase superfamily. Ras family.
