Product Uses
Measurement of the GTP/GDP ratio of Ras in vitro.
Quantitation of GTP-Ras from tissue and tissue culture cell lysates.
Material
The Ras binding domain (RBD) of the c-Raf kinase protein (Raf) protein has been expressed as a GST-fusion protein in E. coli. This protein binds binds specifically to GTP-bound, and not GDP-bound, Ras proteins. The domain can therefore be used to specifically precipitate active, GTP-bound Ras as well as to specifically block the activity of Ras in vitro and in vivo.
The protein is supplied in a glutathione agarose bound format and is shipped lyophilized. The beads are colored for ease of use. This product is used in our Ras activation assay Biochem Kit (Cat. # BK008). The GST-tagged Raf-RBD protein can be released from the beads by incubation with 10 mM reduced glutathione.
Biological Activity
Raf-RBD protein specifically recognizes and binds the active, GTP-bound, forms of Ras proteins. It has a much lower affinity for the inactive, GDP-bound, form Ras.When coupled to a colored glutathione sepharose matrix, the Raf-RBD protein beads become a convienent tool for assaying the activity of the Ras proteins. The quality control biological assay for Raf-RBD protein beads consists of a Ras protein pulldown frombovine brain extracts loaded with either GTP?S (Cat. # BS01) or GDP.
