Rab4 Lysates

Rab4 is a small GTPase that regulates recycling of proteins, such as GPCRs, from the early endosomes to the cell surface. Overexpression of Rab4 causes a redistribution of receptors on plasma membrane versus endocytic compartments. Rab4 is also involved in the translocation of glucose transporter (Glu4) in adipocytes in response to insulin. Association of Rab4 with transferrin receptor containing early endosomes is mediated through the geranylgeranyl groups at its carboxyl terminus. Rab4 can be ...
