General notes
Do not aliquot.Post-translational regulation of Rho activity has been shown specifically for RhoA. This Rho protein is phosphorylated in vitro on serine 188 by cAMP- and cGMP-dependent kinases (PKA and PKG). Ser188 phosphorylation enhances RhoGDI binding and inhibits RhoA-mediated stress fiber formation. Thus, Ser188 is an important site for negative regulation of RhoA activity.
The Life Science industry has been in the grips of a reproducibility crisis for a number of years.

Target
-
Function
Regulates a signal transduction pathway linking plasma membrane receptors to the assembly of focal adhesions and actin stress fibers. Serves as a target for the yopT cysteine peptidase from Yersinia pestis, vector of the plague, and Yersinia pseudotuberculosis, which causes gastrointestinal disorders. May be an activator of PLCE1. Activated by ARHGEF2, which promotes the exchange of GDP for GTP. -
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the small GTPase superfamily. Rho family. -
Domain
The basic-rich region is essential for yopT recognition and cleavage. -
Post-translational
modificationsSubstrate for botulinum ADP-ribosyltransferase.
Cleaved by yopT protease when the cell is infected by some Yersinia pathogens. This removes the lipid attachment, and leads to its displacement from plasma membrane and to subsequent cytoskeleton cleavage.
AMPylation at Tyr-34 and Thr-37 are mediated by bacterial enzymes in case of infection by H.somnus and V.parahaemolyticus, respectively. AMPylation occurs in the effector region and leads to inactivation of the GTPase activity by preventing the interaction with downstream effectors, thereby inhibiting actin assembly in infected cells. It is unclear whether some human enzyme mediates AMPylation; FICD has such ability in vitro but additional experiments remain to be done to confirm results in vivo.
Ubiquitinated by the BCR(BACURD1) and BCR(BACURD2) E3 ubiquitin ligase complexes, leading to its degradation by the proteasome, thereby regulating the actin cytoskeleton and cell migration. -

Predicted band size: 22 kDa
Observed band size: 49 kDa why is the actual band size different from the predicted?
Membrane was incubated with diluted antibody in 5% non-fat milk, PBS, 0.04% Tween20 for 1 hour at room temperature.A fusion protein was used in this western blot; hence the difference in molecular weight compared to predicted molecular weight.
