Anti-Rheb [Rheb 3H6]

Invented at The Institute of Cancer Research

Info

Catalogue Number 151544
Applications IP WB
Antigen/Gene or Protein Targets Rheb
Reactivity Human
Relevance Monoclonal antibody which binds the Rheb GTP binding protein, and can be used to help understand the role of Rheb in mTORC signalling.

Background and Research Application
Rheb (Ras homolog enriched in brain) is an evolutionarily conserved member of the Ras superfamily of small GTP binding proteins. Rheb is expressed at high levels in the brain, but is also found in many other tissues, and can be induced by growth factor stimulation. It is ubiquitously expressed in humans and other mammals. Rheb triggers activation of the Raf-MEK-MAPK pathway and has an important role in regulating the insulin/Target of rapamycin (TOR) signalling pathway, and the cell cycle. Rheb stimulates the phosphorylation of S6K1 and EIF4EBP1 through activation of mTORC1 signalling.
Overexpression of Rheb can be seen in multiple human carcinomas.
