PEP-144 is an 18 amino acid synthetic peptide whose sequence corresponds to residues 1-18 from rat rab 3D. The sequence of this peptide is (amino to carboxy terminus): M (1)-A-S-A-S-E-P-P-A-S-P-R-D-A-A-D-Q-N (18)
This peptide may be used for neutralization and control experiments with the polyclonal antibody that reacts with this product and rat rab 3D, catalog # PA1-773. Using a solution of peptide of equal volume and concentration to the corresponding antibody will yield a large molar excess of peptide (~70-fold) for competitive inhibition of antibody-protein binding reactions.
Reconstitute with 0.1 mL of distilled water.
Rab proteins are low-molecular-weight GTP-binding proteins that form the largest branch of the Ras superfamily of GTPases. Located on the cytoplasmic face of organelles and vesicles, rab proteins are involved in intracellular membrane fusion reactions. Three membrane proteins, synaptosomal associated protein of 25 kDa (SNAP-25), synaptobrevin, and syntaxin, form the core of a ubiquitous membrane fusion machine that interacts with the soluble proteins N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor (NSF) and a-SNAP. Rab proteins, in coordination with the core fusion machinery and Munc-18, help to mediate vesicle docking and fusion. There exist over 40 rab proteins that have been described in mammals. Rab 3D has been shown to be present, in part, in the tongue, pancreas, and liver.
