| Uniprot ID: |
RAB5A_MOUSE |
| Immunogen Region: |
Internal Region |
| Specificity: |
Specific for RAB5A. |
| Immunogen: |
A synthetic peptide from the internal region of mouse Ras-related protein Rab-5A (RAB5A) conjugated to an immunogenic carrier protein has been used as the immunogen. The antigen is homologous in rat. |
| Function | Small GTPase which cycles between active GTP-bound and inactive GDP-bound states. In its active state, binds to a variety of effector proteins to regulate cellular responses such as of intracellular membrane trafficking, from the formation of transport vesicles to their fusion with membranes. Active GTP-bound form is able to recruit to membranes different sets of downstream effectors directly responsible for vesicle formation, movement, tethering and fusion. RAB5A is required for the fusion of plasma membranes and early endosomes. Contributes to the regulation of filopodia extension. Required for the exosomal release of SDCBP, CD63, PDCD6IP and syndecan. Regulates maturation of apoptotic cell-containing phagosomes, probably downstream of DYN2 and PIK3C3. |
