RRAS Overexpression Lysate

HEK293T cells in 10-cm dishes were transiently transfected with a non-lipid polymer transfection reagent specially designed and manufactured for large volume DNA transfection. Transfected cells were cultured for 48hrs before collection. The cells were lysed in modified RIPA buffer (25mM Tris-HCl pH7.6, 150mM NaCl, 1% NP-40, 1mM EDTA, 1xProteinase inhibitor cocktail mix, 1mM PMSF and 1mM Na3VO4, and then centrifuged to clarify the lysate. Protein concentration was measured by BCA protein assay kit.

R-Ras is a member of the Ras superfamily of GTPases. Ras proteins function as signaling focal points that are activated by convergent signaling pathways intiated by extracellular stimuli (reviewed in Mitin et al, 2005). Activated Ras proteins in turn regulate a diversity of downstream cytoplasmic signaling cascades. Many members of the Ras superfamily are implicated in the regulation of hematopoietic cells, with roles in growth, survival, differentiation, cytokine production, chemotaxis, vesicle-trafficking, and phagocytosis. The Ras superfamily of proteins includes over 150 small GTPases (distinguished from the large, heterotrimeric GTPases, the G-proteins). It comprises six subfamilies, the Ras, Rho, Ran, Rab, Arf, and Kir/Rem/Rad subfamilies. They exhibit considerable overall amino acid identities, especially in the regions interacting with the guanine nucleotide exchange factors that catalyze their activation. Recognizes R-Ras; human R-Ras is a 218 amino acid protein.
