Popis: | We recently identified a novel rat cDNA: rab1B, closely related to the rab1A cDNA and to the yeast YPT1 gene. The rab1B cDNA encodes a 202 amino acid protein (22.1 kDa) that was produced in Escherichia coli under the control of the Φ 10 promoter for the T7 RNA polymerase. The rab1B protein was purified in large amounts to near homogeneity in a simplified procedure. We studied the biochemical properties of rab1B and rab1A proteins. They both bind specifically GTP and GDP and possess intrinsic GTPase activities. The rab1B Lys21 → Met mutant protein does not bind GTP, whereas the A1a65 → Thr mutant has a reduced GTPase activity and is competent for autophosphorylation in the presence of GTP.GTP binding protein; Superfamily, ras; Secretion |
