Background: GTP-Binding Protein Rheb (RHEB) is a member of the small GTPase superfamily and encodes a lipid-anchored; cell membrane protein with five repeats of the RAS-related GTP-binding region. Highest levels of RHEB can be found in the skeletal and cardiac muscle; and it is vital in the regulation of growth and cell cycle progression due to its role in the Insulin/TOR/S6K signaling pathway. RHEB stimulates the phosphorylation of S6K1 and EIF4EBP1 through activation of mTORC1 signaling; and it activates the protein kinase activity of mTORC1. RHEB has GTPase activity and shuttles between a GDP-bound form and a GTP-bound form; farnesylation of the protein is required for this activity.
Sequence: Met1-Met184
Purity: > 95 % as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE.
Formulation: Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of 20mM Tris, 10mM GSH, pH 8.0.
Normally 5 % - 8 % trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween80 are added as protectants before lyophilization.
Please refer to the specific buffer information in the printed manual.
Reconstitution: Please refer to the printed manual for detailed information.
Endotoxin: < 1.0 EU per μg of the protein as determined by the LAL method.
Calculated MW: 20.4 kDa
Observed MW: 45 kDa
Storage: Generally, lyophilized proteins are stable for up to 12 months when stored at -20 to -80℃. Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 4-8℃ for 2-7 days. Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at < -20℃ for 3 months.
Shipping: This product is provided as lyophilized powder which is shipped with ice packs.
