Anti-RAB36 Antibody Picoband® (Biotine Conjugate)

Ras-related protein Rab-36 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the RAB36 gene. The Ras-related superfamily of guanine nucleotide binding proteins includes the R-Ras, Rap, Ral/Rec and Rho/Rab subfamilies. Increasing data suggests an important role for Rab proteins in either endocytosis or in biosynthetic protein transport. The process of transporting newly synthesized proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum to various stacks of the Golgi complex and to secretory vesicles involves the movement of carrier vesicles and requires Rab protein function. Rab proteins are also an integral part of endocytic pathways. Rab 36 is a ubiquitously expressed member of the Rab family of proteins and localizes to the Golgi membrane where it is believed to participate in protein transport. The gene encoding Rab 36 localizes to a critical region of chromosome 22 that is often deleted or involved in translocations in malignant rhabdoid tumors (MRTs). This suggests that Rab 36 may play a role in the development of MRTs.
