Rab3 Pull-Down Activation Assay Kit

Cat. # 82601

Introduction

Rab3 is a member of the Rab-family GTPases and is specifically targeted to synaptic vesicles Currently there is no direct assay to * the activation of Rab3 GTPases.

The Rab3 Activation Assay Kit is based on the configuration-specific monoclonal antibody that specifically recognizes Rab3-GTP, but not Rab3-GDP. Given the high affinity of monoclonal antibodies to their antigens, the activation assay could be performed in a short time. This assay provides the reliable results with consistent reproducibility.

Currently there is no direct assay to* the activation of Rab3 GTPases.

The Rap1 Activation Assay Kit uses configuration-specific anti-Rab3-GTP Mouse monoclonal antibody to* Rab3-GTP levels in cell extracts or in vitro GTPγS loading Rab3 activation assays. Anti-Rab3-GTP mouse monoclonal antibody is first incubated with cell lysates containing Rab3-GTP. Next, the GTP-bound Rab3 is pulled down by protein A/G agarose. Finally, the precipitated Rab3-GTP is detected through immunoblot analysis using Anti-Rab3A Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody.

Rab3A Activation Assay.Purified GST-tagged Rab3A proteins (Cat. #10128) were immunoprecipitated with the anti-Rab3-GTP monoclonal antibody (Cat. #. 26920) after treated with GDP (lane 1) or GTPγS (lane 2), and was blotted with anti-Rab3A polyclonal antibody (Cat. # 21041). Input control is shown in the bottom panel.
