Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody targets phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate-dependent Rac exchanger 1 protein (gene PREX1) in human samples and is validated for Western blot, flow cytometry and ELISA. The predicted molecular weight is 186.2 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 186 kDa.
P-Rex1 (PREX1) is a guanine nucleotide exchange factor that activates Rac GTPases. It is switched on jointly by PIP3 produced by PI3K and by Gβγ subunits released from activated G protein-coupled receptors, and it is studied in neutrophil migration, cytoskeletal remodeling and cancer cell invasion.

Immunogen
Recombinant human PREX1 fragment (Asn643–Asp1155), expressed in E. coli.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human. UniProt places phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate-dependent Rac exchanger 1 protein in the cytoplasm and cell membrane. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Mainly expressed in peripheral blood leukocytes and brain. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
