ANTI-RIP

The Uses of ANTI-RIP

Anti-RIPK1 antibody produced in chicken is suitable for western blotting analysis at a dilution of 1:500, for tissue or cell staining at a dilution of 1:200.

The Uses of ANTI-RIP

All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project (www.proteinatlas.org)and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry.

The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link.

General Description

RPAIN (replication protein A interacting protein), also known as RIP (RPA interacting protein), is an adaptor protein, that is transcribed into 9 isoforms as obtained from a premade human fetal brain library. The longest isoform is hRIPa, which is composed of 219 amino acids. It contains an arginine-rich basic region in its N-terminal, succeeded by an acidic region and two Zn finger-like domains in its C-terminal. hRIPβ lacks one Zn finger-like region. RPAIN gene is localized to human chromosome 17p13 and is composed of seven exons.

Biochem/physiol Actions

RALBP1 can activate specifically hydrolysis of GTP bound to RAC1 and CDC42, but not RALA. RALBP1 mediates ATP-dependent transport of S-(2,4-dinitrophenyl)-glutathione (DNP-SG) and doxorubicin (DOX) and is the major ATP-dependent transporter of glutathione conjugates of electrophiles (GS-E) and DOX in erythrocytes.RALBP1 can catalyze transport of glutathione conjugates and xenobiotics, and may contribute to the multidrug resistance phenomenon. RALBP1 serves as a scaffold protein that brings together proteins forming an endocytotic complex during interphase and also with CDK1 to switch off endocytosis, One of its substrates would be EPN1/Epsin.
