Catalog Number:  26911

Gene Symbol:  RAB5

Description:   Anti-Active Rab5 Mouse Monoclonal Antibody

Background:   Rab5 is a member of Rab-family GTPases. Rab5 is a rate-limiting component of the machinery regulating the kinetics of membrane traffic in the early endocytic pathway.

Immunogen:   Recombinant full length protein of active Gao

Applications:   IP, IHC

Recommended Dilutions:   1 µg for ~2 mg total cellular proteins for IP 1:100 dilution for IHC

Concentration:   1 mg/ml

Host:   mouse

Format:   Liquid

Clonality:   Monoclonal

Isotype:   IgG1

Purity:   Purified from ascites

Storage buffer:

Preservative:  no

Constituents:  PBS (without Mg2+ and Ca2+), pH 7.4, 150 mM NaCl, 50% glycerol

Species Reactivity:  Anti-active Rab5 antibody recognizes active Rab5 proteins of vertebrates.

Storage Conditions:  Store at -20°C. Avoid freeze / thaw cycles

Immunoprecipitation/Western blot:

Rab5 activation assay. Purified full-length Rab5A proteins were immunoprecipitated after treated with GDP (lane 1) or GTPγS (lane 2). Immunoprecipitation was done with the anti-active Rab5 monoclonal antibody (Cat. No. 26911). Immunoblot was with an anti-Rab5 polyclonal antibody (Cat. No. 21151).
