Description
RHOQ, also known as rho-related GTP-binding protein RhoQ, is a small signaling G protein (more specifically a GTPase), and is a member of the Rac subfamily of the family Rho family of GTPases. It involved in epithelial cell polarization processes. It may play a role in CFTR trafficking to the plasma membrane. It causes the formation of thin, actin-rich surface projections called filopodia. Recombinant human RhoQ protein, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E.coli and purified by using conventional chromatography
