Anti-RAB23 Antibody Picoband® Fluoro550 Conjugated
Product Specifications
Background
Ras-related protein Rab-23 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the RAB23 gene. This gene encodes a small GTPase of the Ras superfamily. Rab proteins are involved in the regulation of diverse cellular functions associated with intracellular membrane trafficking, including autophagy and immune response to bacterial infection. The encoded protein may play a role in central nervous system development by antagonizing sonic hedgehog signaling. Disruption of this gene has been implicated in Carpenter syndrome as well as cancer. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
