General description

The Rac1/Cdc42 Activation Assay (Cat. No. 17-441) provides an effective method for detecting Rac and Cdc42 activity in cell lysates. This assay uses the downstream effector of Rac/Cdc42, p21-activated protein kinase (PAK1), to isolated the active GTP-bound form of Rac/Cdc42 from the sample. The p21 binding domain (PBD) of PAK1 is expressed as a GST-fusion protein and coupled to agarose beads. After precipitation, an immunoblot is performed and the activated Rac/Cdc42 is detected with specific monoclonal antibodies, followed by HRP-conjugated secondary antibody and ECL reagent.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Species Cross-reactivity: Human and mouse. Predicted to cross-react with all mammalian species.
Anti-Rac1, clone 23A8: Species Cross-reactivity: Human, mouse and rat. Other species cross-reactivity unknown.
Anti-cdc42 Species Cross-reactivity: Human, mouse, rat and dog. Other species cross-reactivity unknown.

Preparation Note

1 year at -20°C from date of shipment

Analysis Note

Routinely evaluated by precipitating Rac1-GTP and cdc42-GTP from 3T3/A31 and HeLa cell lysates that had been loaded with GTPγS(lysates were loaded in vitro with GTPγS for cdc42-GTP). The precipitated Rac1-GTP and cdc42-GTP was detected by immunoblot analysis using anti-Rac1 (1 μg/ml).
