Gene Information

human ... RAB32(10981)

General description

The gene RAB32 (Ras-related protein) is mapped to human chromosome 6q24.3. It is a Rab GTPase which is present in the mitochondria. The protein also has a transient phagosomal localization and is also present at the melanosome membrane.

Immunogen

Ras-related protein Rab-32 recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

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

RAB32 (Ras-related protein) controls intracellular lipid accumulation in hepatocytes. Absence of it promotes the expression of ATGL (adipose triglyceride lipase) and thereby causes lipolysis. RAB32 is involved in hepatic steatosis. In melanogenesis, it is involved in the transport of important enzymes, such as tyrosinase and Tyrp1 (tyrosinase related protein 1). RAB32 also interacts with and is involved in localization of leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2), a protein associated with Parkinson′s disease. RAB32 is hypermethylated in microsatellite-unstable colon, gastric and endometrial adenocarcinomas.

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.

Rab32 is a small GTPase associated with multiple organelles but is particularly enriched at the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Here, it controls targeting to mitochondria-ER contacts (MERCs), thus influencing composition of the mitochondria-associated membrane (MAM). Moreover, Rab32 regulates mitochondrial membrane dynamics
