Rac Antibody (YA3290)

Rac Antibody (YA3290) is a non-conjugated IgG antibody, targeting Rac, with a predicted molecular weight of 21 kDa. Rac Antibody (YA3290) can be used for WB experiment in human, mouse, rat background.

The RAC1 Protein, a plasma membrane-associated small GTPase, dynamically cycles between its active GTP-bound and inactive GDP-bound states, exerting regulatory control over a spectrum of cellular responses. In its active state, RAC1 binds to various effector proteins, modulating processes such as secretory functions, phagocytosis of apoptotic cells, epithelial cell polarization, neuronal adhesion, migration, differentiation, and growth-factor-induced formation of membrane ruffles. It forms an active heterodimer with Rho GDI in the cytosol, known as sigma 1, participating in the stimulation of NADPH oxidase activity in macrophages. Essential for SPATA13-mediated regulation of cell migration and adhesion assembly and disassembly, RAC1 also stimulates PKN2 kinase activity. It collaborates with RAB7A to regulate the formation of ruffled borders in osteoclasts and promotes the nuclear shuttling of NR3C2 in podocytes for proper kidney functioning. In neurons, RAC1 is involved in dendritic spine formation, synaptic plasticity, spine morphogenesis, and synapse formation, highlighting its multifaceted role in neurobiology. Furthermore, RAC1 plays a crucial role in regulating GABA(A) receptor synaptic stability and GABAergic inhibitory synaptic transmission through PAK1 activation and F-actin stabilization. The isoform B of RAC1 exhibits distinctive features in its GEF-independent GDP/GTP exchange and impaired GTP hydrolysis, partially restored by GTPase-activating proteins, suggesting nuanced regulatory mechanisms in its effector interactions.
