Immunogen
Synthesized peptide derived from human protein . at AA range: 800-880
Specificity
RHG20 Polyclonal Antibody detects endogenous levels of protein.
Formulation
Liquid in PBS containing 50% glycerol, and 0.02% sodium azide.
Dilution rate
WB 1:500-2000 ELISA 1:5000-20000
Purification process (Immunogen)
The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen.
Background
The protein encoded by this gene is an activator of RHO-type GTPases, transducing a signal from RAP1 to RHO and impacting neurite outgrowth. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2016],
Function
caution:The translocation involving this gene was originally published as t(X;11)(q13;23) (PubMed:15543602), but BRWD3 is localized to Xq21 and not to Xq13.,developmental stage:Low expression is found in fetal liver.,disease:A chromosomal aberration involving ARHGAP20 may be a cause of B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL). Translocation t(X;11)(q21;q23) with BRWD3 does not result in fusion transcripts but disrupts both genes.,function:GTPase activator for the Rho-type GTPases by converting them to an inactive GDP-bound state.,similarity:Contains 1 PH domain.,similarity:Contains 1 Ras-associating domain.,similarity:Contains 1 Rho-GAP domain.,tissue specificity:Expressed predominantly in the brain. Lower expression is found in lymph nodes.,
