Rag A/B Polyclonal Antibody

function:Involved in the RCC1/Ran-GTPase pathway. May play a direct role in a TNF-alpha signaling pathway leading to induction of cell death. May alternatively act as a cellular target for adenovirus E3-14.7K, an inhibitor of TNF-alpha functions, thereby affecting cell death. Has guanine nucleotide-binding activity but undetectable intrinsic GTPase activity.,similarity:Belongs to the GTR/RAG GTP-binding protein family.,subcellular location:Predominantly cytoplasmic. May shuttle between the cytoplasm and nucleus, depending on the bound nucleotide state. Colocalizes in vivo with adenovirus E3-14.7K mainly to the cytoplasm especially near the nuclear membrane and in discrete foci on or near the plasma membrane.,subunit:Can occur as a homodimer, or form a heterodimer with RRAGC or RRAGD in a sequence-independent manner. Binds GTP. The GTP-bound form of RRAGA interacts with NOL8. Interacts with adenovirus E3 14.7 kDa protein.,tissue specificity:Ubiquitously expressed with highest levels of expression in skeletal muscle, heart, and brain.,
