Recombinant Rat RAB7A/Rab-7a Protein (His Tag)

N-His

Generally, lyophilized proteins are stable for up to 12 months when stored at -20 to -80°C. Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 4-8°C for 2-7 days. Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at < -20°C for 3 months.

RAB7A is a ubiquitous small GTPase, which controls transport to late endocytic compartments. Silencing or overexpression of wild type RAB7A changed the soluble/insoluble rate of peripherin indicating that RAB7A is important for peripherin organization and function. In addition, disease-causing RAB7A mutant proteins bind more strongly to peripherin and their expression causes a significant increase in the amount of soluble peripherin. The altered interaction between disease-causing RAB7A mutants and peripherin could play an important role in CMT2B neuropathy.
