Gene Information

mouse ... RTKN(20166)

General description

GST-tagged fusion protein, corresponding to residues 7-89 of mouse Rhotekin Rho Binding Domain, expressed in E.coli and bound to glutathione-agarose. Specifically binds to and precipitates GTP-Rho, but not GDP-Rho from cell lysates.
Product Source: Expressed in E. coli

Physical form

650 µg of recombinant protein in 1 mL glutathione-agarose slurry containing 45mM TRIS, pH 7.5, 0.45% Triton X-100, 135mM NaCl, 4.5mM MgCl2, 0.9mM dithiothreitol, 0.09mM PMSF, 0.9 µg/mL aprotinin, 0.9 µg/mL leupeptin, and 10% glycerol.

Preparation Note

Stable for 6 months at -70°C from date of receipt.

Analysis Note

Routinely evaluated by precipitating GTP-Rho from 3T3/A31 lysates, subsequent detection by immunoblot analysis using Anti-RhoA, clone 55 (05-778).

Other Notes

For Specific Activity data, refer to the Certificate of Analysis for individual lots of this enzyme.
