Anti-GARNL1/RALGAPA1 Antibody Picoband®

This gene encodes a major subunit of the RAL-GTPase activating protein. A similar protein in mouse binds E12, a transcriptional regulator of immunoglobulin genes. The mouse protein also functions in skeletal muscle by binding to the regulatory 14-3-3 proteins upon stimulation with insulin or muscle contraction. A pseudogene of this gene has been identified on chromosome 9.

RALGAPA1; GARNL1; KIAA0884; TULIP1; Ral GTPase-activating protein subunit alpha-1; GAP-related-interacting partner to E12; GRIPE; GTPase-activating Rap/Ran-GAP domain-like 1; Tuberin-like protein 1; p240

E.coli-derived human GARNL1/RALGAPA1 recombinant protein (Position: S503-H1729) . Human GARNL1/RALGAPA1 shares 95% amino acid (aa) sequence identity with both mouse and rat GARNL1/RALGAPA1.
