Rab11 (Ras-related protein) has three subtypes -Rab11a, Rab11b, and Rab25. Rab11a (Ras-related protein Rab-11A) belongs to the ras-like small GTP-binding protein superfamily. It is found in nonpolarized cells like fibroblasts and erythroleukemia cells. It is located on human chromosome 15q21.3-q22.31 and on mouse chromosome 9. Rab11a is expressed abundantly.
Immunogen
synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acid residues 1-17 from human Rab11. This sequence is completely conserved in human, mouse, and rat and 94% conserved in C. elegans and amphibians.
Application
Anti-Rab11 has been used in western blotting and immunohistochemistry.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Rab11a (Ras-related protein Rab-11A) participates in the modulation of basolateral to apical transcytosis. It controls TRPV5/6 (Ca2+-selective members) channel trafficking. It is essential for the production of bile canalicular in WIF-B9 cells (rat hepatoma/human fibroblast hybrid cells).
Physical form
Solution in phosphate buffered saline containing 1 mg/mL bovine serum albumin and 0.05% sodium azide.
