Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody recognizes ras-related protein Rab-1B (gene RAB1B) in human, mouse and rat samples and is validated for Western blot, IHC, ICC/IF and flow cytometry. The predicted molecular weight is 22.2 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 24 kDa.
Rab1B (RAB1B) is a Rab GTPase closely related to Rab1A that regulates vesicle traffic from the ER through the Golgi stacks and maintains Golgi organization. It also contributes to early steps of autophagosome formation at specialized ER sites.

Immunogen
Synthetic peptide from the C-terminal region of human RAB1B. Sequence identity with the mouse and rat orthologs: 100% and 96.8%, respectively.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human, mouse and rat. UniProt places ras-related protein Rab-1B in the cytoplasm, membrane and preautophagosomal structure membrane. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
