SKU:: 372328
Molecular Weight:: 71.5
Purity:: ≥90% (SDS-PAGE)
Storage Conditions:: -20°C
Supplier:: United States Biological
Format:: Supplied as a lyophilized powder from 20mM Tris-HCl, 0.5M sodium chloride, pH 8.0, 6% trehalose. Reconstitute with sterile ddH2O to a concentration of 0.1-1mg/ml.
Extra Details:: Acts as guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) for RhoA GTPases. May play a role in actin cytoskeleton reorganization in different tissues since its activation induces formation of actin stress fibers. Also act as a GEF for RAC1, inducing production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Does not act as a GEF for CDC42. The G protein beta-gamma (Gbetagamma) subunits of heterotrimeric G proteins act as activators, explaining the integrated effects of LPA and other G-protein coupled receptor agonists on actin stress fiber formation, cell shape change and ROS production. Source: Recombinant protein corresponding to aa159-551 from human ARHGEF18, fused to GST-Tag at N-terminal expressed in E. coli.
