Tested Applications

• Positive WB detected in: rat brain tissue
• Positive IP detected in: mouse brain tissue, rat brain tissue
• Positive IHC detected in: mouse pancreas tissue, mouse brain tissue; Note: suggested antigen retrieval with TE buffer pH 9.0; (*) Alternatively, antigen retrieval may be performed with citrate buffer pH 6.0

Recommended dilution

• Western Blot (WB): WB : 1:500-1:2000
• Immunoprecipitation (IP): IP : 0.5-4.0 ug for 1.0-3.0 mg of total protein lysate
• Immunohistochemistry (IHC): IHC : 1:50-1:500

It is recommended that this reagent should be titrated in each testing system to obtain optimal results.

Background Information

RIT2 (AKA: Rin, Ras-like in neurons) is a small, neuronal, ras-like GTPase with enriched expression in SNc DANs (PMID: 38395968). RIT2 is a member of the Ras superfamily that plays important roles in many vital cellular functions, such as differentiation and survival (PMID: 29860660). Rit2 directly interacts with the DA transporter (DAT), and is required for regulated DAT membrane trafficking. In cell culture models, Rit2 is required for EGF- and NGF-mediated neurite outgrowth, NGF-mediated ERK phosphorylation, and cell viability (PMID: 38395968).
