Recombinant Human CDC42(Q61L) protein, His-tagged

• Cat.No.: CDC42-2637H
• Product Overview: Recombinant Human CDC42 fused with a histidine tag in the amino-terminus was expressed in E. coli.

Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: E.coli
• Tag: His
• Description: The constitutively active form of human Cdc42 protein contains a glutamine to leucine substitution at residue 61. The common name for this mutant is Cdc42(Q61L) or L61Cdc42. The leucine substitution prevents endogenous and GAP-stimulated GTPase activity of Cdc42, hence the protein is always in the active, GTP-bound, state. A similar mutation in Ras (Ras(Q61L)) behaves as an oncogenic mutation.
• Form: 2 mM Tris pH 7.6, 0.5 mM MgCl2, 0.5% sucrose and 0.1% dextran.
• Molecular Mass: ~25 kDa
• Purity: >70% pure
• Applications: Cdc42 effector and GAP identification and binding studies; Activation of Cdc42 effectors in vitro and in vivo; Stimulation of Cdc42 phenotype by microinjection into cells
