Recombinant human TC21/RRAS2 protein

Can be stored at +2C to +8C for 1 week. For long term storage, aliquot and store at -20C to -80C. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing cycles.

RAS viral (r-ras) oncogene homolog 2 isoform a, also known as RRAS2, belongs to the Ras like GTPase family that cycle between GTP-bound active and GDP-bound inactive states at the cytoplasmic face of the plasma membrane. It is implicated in the pathogenesis of human cancers. Thus, overexpression of active RRAS2 in EpH4 cells induces tumorigenicity through the phosphoinositide 3-kinase, p38 MAPK, and mTOR pathways, and these cells lose their sensitivity to the normal growth inhibitory role of TGF-beta. Recombinant human RRAS2, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E. coli and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques.
