RGP1, NT (Retrograde Golgi Transport Protein RGP1 Homolog, KIAA0258)

Retrograde golgi transport homolog 1 (RGP1) is the mammalian homolog to the yeast RGP1, a protein that forms a tight complex with RIC1. This complex binds Ypt6p and stimulates guanine nucleotide exchange. RGP1 is localized to the Golgi and is thought to be a potential Golgi recycling factor. Rgp1 yeast mutants exhibit defects in retrograde trafficking similar to those seen in yeast with mutations in other retrograde Golgi transport proteins. It is expected that RGP1 plays a similar role in mammalian cells to that seen in yeast.\n\nApplications:\nSuitable for use in ELISA and Western Blot. Other applications not tested.\n\nRecommended Dilution:\nWestern Blot: 1-2ug/ml\nOptimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.\n\nPositive Control:\nHuman Heart Tissue Lysate\n\nStorage and Stability:\nMay be stored at 4 degrees C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20 degrees C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
