Carabin differs from other members of the TBC1 domain protein family, which appear to play a role in the regulation of cell growth and differentiation. Studies demonstrate that Carabin is part of a negative regulatory loop for the intracellular TCR signalling pathway and acts as an inhibitor of the Ras signalling pathway. Carabin is also believed to mediate crosstalk between calcineurin and Ras. Carabin is most abundantly expressed in spleen and peripheral blood leukocytes.
Applications:
Suitable for use in Western Blot. Other applications not tested.
Recommended Dilution:
Western Blot: 1-2ug/ml
Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
Storage and Stability:
May be stored at 4 degrees C for short-term only. For long-term storage and to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, add sterile 40-50% glycerol, aliquot and store at -20 degrees C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months at -20 degrees C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
