RAB3D, Recombinant, Human, aa1-219, His-tag (Ras-related protein Rab-3D, GOV, RAB16)

Ras-related protein Rab-3D, also known as GOV, is a member of the Ras superfamily of small Rab GTPases. Rab proteins play an important role for, either in endocytosis or in biosynthetic protein transport. Rab3D mRNA is predominantly expressed in white adipose tissue and, coincident with GLUT4, increases upon differentiation of 3T3-L1 broblasts into insulin-responsive adipocytes. Rab3D displays close structural similarities with Rab 3A, an isoform which has been functionally implicated in regulated exocytosis in various cell types. Purified by using conventional chromatography techniques. Source: Recombinant corresponding to aa1-219 of human Rab3D, fused to His-tag at N-terminal, expressed in E.coli.
