Rabbit anti-Human KRAS Polyclonal Antibody

Uniprot Id

P01116

Target Species

Human

Target Name

KRAS

Target Full Name

GTPase KRas

Target Function

Ras proteins bind GDP/GTP and possess intrinsic GTPase activity. Plays an important role in the regulation of cell proliferation. Plays a role in promoting oncogenic events by inducing transcriptional silencing of tumor suppressor genes (TSGs) in colorectal cancer (CRC) cells in a ZNF304-dependent manner.

Target Involvement

Leukemia, acute myelogenous (AML); Leukemia, juvenile myelomonocytic (JMML); Noonan syndrome 3 (NS3); Gastric cancer (GASC); Cardiofaciocutaneous syndrome 2 (CFC2)

Target Subcellular Location

Cell membrane; Lipid-anchor; Cytoplasmic side. Cytoplasm, cytosol.; [Isoform 2B]: Cell membrane; Lipid-anchor.

Target Protein Families

Small GTPase superfamily, Ras family

Target Research Area

Epigenetics and Nuclear Signaling

Target Background

This gene, a Kirsten ras oncogene homolog from the mammalian ras gene family, encodes a protein that is a member of the small GTPase superfamily. A single amino acid substitution is responsible for an activating mutation. The transforming protein that results is implicated in various malignancies, including lung adenocarcinoma, mucinous adenoma, ductal carcinoma of the pancreas and colorectal carcinoma. Alternative splicing leads to variants encoding two isoforms that differ in the C-terminal region.
