Gene Information

human ... RASD2(23551)

General description

GTP-binding protein Rhes is a protein encoded by the RASD2 gene in humans. It is referred as Rhes, TEM2, MGC:4834 and is mapped to human chromosome 22q13.1. It is a highly conserved small guanosine-5′-triphosphate (GTP) binding protein belonging to the Ras superfamily. Its expression is highly enriched in striatum.

Application

All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry.

The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies® protocols and other useful information.

Biochem/physiol Actions

RASD2 gene is associated with the dopamine receptor-mediated signaling and behavior though adenylyl cyclase. It is the product of a thyroid hormone-regulated gene during brain development. It is an imidazoline-regulated transcript in pancreatic β-cells and is expressed in β-cells. Signaling by 7 transmembrane receptors through heterotrimeric G proteins is inhibited by this gene. It can act as an attractive candidate for Huntington′s Disease (HD) therapy.

Features and Benefits

Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
  • IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
  • Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

Ras homolog enriched in striatum (Rhes), is a highly conserved small guanosine-5'-triphosphate (GTP) binding protein belonging to the Ras superfamily. Rhes is involved in the dopamine receptor-mediated signaling and behavior though adenylyl cyclase. The striatum-specific GTPase share a close homology

Rhes is a small GTPase whose expression is highly enriched in striatum. It shares homology with Ras proteins, but also contains a C-terminal extension, thus suggesting additional functions. Signaling by 7 transmembrane receptors through heterotrimeric G proteins is inhibited by

Efaroxan induces membrane depolarization by interaction with the pore forming subunit of the ATP-sensitive potassium channel, Kir6.2. However, this effect is not responsible for its full secretory activity. In this study we have used an anti-idiotypic approach to generate antibodies
