RAP2B Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 206 amino acids (1-183 a.a) and having a molecular mass of 22.9kDa. RAP2B is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Ras-related protein Rap-2b (RAP2B) is a part of RAS-related genes family. RAP2B has a threonine residue at aa 61Unlike normal ras proteins which have a nontransforming glutamine residue at that position. The threonine residue makes the intrinsic GTPase activity for Rap2B lower, by this means allows RAP2B to exist in the activated state for a longer period of time than normal ras proteins. RAP2B is a platelet protein which is activated by thrombin and involved in platelet activation. RAP2B may be a candidate oncogene which takes part in carcinogenesis through activation of NF-kappaB pathway.
