Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody targets ras-related protein Rab-27A (gene RAB27A) in human, mouse and rat samples and is validated for ELISA, flow cytometry, IHC, ICC/IF and Western blot. The predicted molecular weight is 24.9 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 27 kDa.
Rab27A (RAB27A) is a Rab GTPase that directs docking and release of secretory granules and lysosome-related organelles. It is needed for cytotoxic granule exocytosis by T and NK cells, melanosome transport and exosome secretion, and its loss causes Griscelli syndrome type 2.

Immunogen
Recombinant human RAB27A fragment (Leu98–Lys216), expressed in E. coli.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human, mouse and rat. UniProt places ras-related protein Rab-27A in the membrane, melanosome, late endosome and lysosome. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Found in all the examined tissues except in brain. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
