Synonyms
ARF-1, ADP-ribosylation factor 1.
Introduction
ARF1 is a small guanine nucleotide-binding protein that increases the enzymatic activities of cholera toxin. ARF1 is necessary and ubiquitous in eukaryotes. ARF1 takes part in vesicular transport and functioning via phospholipase D activation. ARF1 is involved in membrane traffic and organelle integrity which are closely tied to their reversible association with membranes and distinct interactions with membrane phospholipids.
Description
ARF1 Recombinant Human produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 201 amino acids (1-181 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 22.8 kDa. The ARF1 is fused to 20 amino acid His-Tag at N-terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
