Description
Product Characteristics: Ras-related GTP-binding protein Ais aproteinthat in humans is encoded by theRRAGAgene. Guanine nucleotide-binding protein forming heterodimeric Rag complexes required for the amino acid-induced relocalization of mTORC1 to the lysosomes and its subsequent activation by the GTPase RHEB. This is a crucial step in the activation of the TOR signaling cascade by amino acids. Involved in the RCC1/Ran-GTPase pathway. May play a direct role in a TNF-alpha signaling pathway leading to induction of cell death.
Target Information: binds GTP\, member of the subfamily of Ras-homologous GTP binding proteins [RGD, Feb 2006]
