Relevance 

Rab5 is a 24 kDa GTP-binding protein that regulates the fusion of plasma membrane-derived clathrin-coated vesicles with early endosomes and homotypic fusion among early endosomes. It is localized to the cytoplasmic side of the plasma membrane, clathrin coated vesicles and early endosomes. Rab5 is believed to regulate vesicle fusion through a cycle of GDP/GTP exchange and GTP hydrolysis. The different guanine nucleotide binding states of Rab5 is postulated to affect its ability to associate or dissociate with membranes during endocytotic membrane traffic. Its GTP-bound form, which represents the active form of Rab5, associates with membrane and regulates vesicle docking and fusion. Studies using a Rab5 mutant that hydrolysed xanthosine 5'-triphosphate (XTP) indicated that nucleotide hydrolysis occurs even in the absence of membrane fusion. GTP hydrolysis by Rab5 is postulated to determine the frequency of membrane docking and fusion events.

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Rab5 antibody - Drosophila Early Endosome Marker (ab31261)

ab31261 staining 3rd instar wing imaginal disc cells of fruit fly (Drosophila melanogaster).  Cells were formaldehyde fixed and blocked with 5 % serum for 2 hours at 22°C prior to incubating with the primary antibody, diluted 1/500, for 16 hours at 4°C.  A Cy3® conjugated donkey anti-rabbit IgG (H+L) antibody, diluted 1/500, was used as the secondary.

In the image, the nuclei of some cells are marked by GFP (green).  The punctate, non-nuclear staining pattern is indicative of endosomes (similar to other endosomal markers such as Hrs).
