Product Overview

Tag His
Host Species Human
Accession Q9Y2Y0
Synonym BART, BART1, RP66
Background ADP-ribosylation factor (ARF)-like proteins (ARLs) comprise a functionally distinct group of the ARF family of RAS-related GTPases. ARL2BP binds to ARL2.GTP with high affinity but does not interact with ARL2.GDP, activated ARF, or RHO proteins. The lack of detectable membrane association of ARL2BP or ARL2 upon activation of ARL2 is suggestive of actions distinct from those of the ARFs. ARL2BP is considered to be the first ARL2-specific effector identified, due to its interaction with ARL2.GTP but lack of ARL2 GTPase-activating protein activity. ARL2BP, together with ARL2, plays a role in the nuclear translocation, retention and transcriptional activity of STAT3. ARL2BP may play a role as an effector of ARL2.

Gene Functions References

  1. This study identified two homozygous variants in ARL2BP as a rare cause of autosomal recessive retinitis pigmentosa. Further studies are required to define the underlying disease mechanism causing retinal degeneration as a result of mutations in ARL2BP and any phenotype-genotype correlation associated with residual levels of the wild-type transcript. PMID: 30210231
  2. Subsequent analysis of 844 index cases did not reveal further pathogenic chances in ARL2BP indicating that mutations in ARL2B are a rare cause of arRCD (about 0.1%) in a large cohort of French patients. PMID: 27790702
  3. Alteration of EBV encoded miR-BART1 expression results in an increase in migration and invasion of nasopharyngeal carcinoma in vitro and causes metastasis in vivo. EBV-miR-BART1 directly targets the cellular tumour suppressor PTEN. PMID: 26135619
  4. EBV also downregulates two immediate early genes by miR-BART20-5p. PMID: 24899173
  5. Mutations in ARL2BP cause autosomal-recessive retinitis pigmentosa. PMID: 23849777
  6. EBV-miR-BART1 could influence the expression of metabolism-associated genes and might be involved in cancer metabolism in nasopharyngeal carcinoma PMID: 23685147
  7. Our results imply that BART regulates actin-cytoskeleton rearrangements at membrane ruffles through modulation of the activity of Rac1, which, in turn, inhibits pancreatic cancer cell invasion. PMID: 22745590
  8. These results imply that BART contributes to regulating PKCalpha activity through binding to ANX7, thereby affecting the invasiveness of pancreatic cancer cells. PMID: 22532868
  9. We identify a subset of BART miRNAs that are restricted to Latency III in normal infection but are up regulated in tumors that express Latency I and II. PMID: 21901094
  10. Our results imply that BART increases active RhoA by inhibiting ARL2 function, which in turn inhibits invasiveness of cancer cells. PMID: 21833473
  11. Crystal structure of the ARL2-GTP-BART complex reveals a novel recognition and binding mode of small GTPase with effector. PMID: 19368893

Proteins are sensitive to heat, and freeze-drying can preserve the activity of the majority of proteins. It improves protein stability, extends storage time, and reduces shipping costs. However, freeze-drying can also lead to the loss of the active portion of the protein and cause aggregation and denaturation issues. Nonetheless, these adverse effects can be minimized by incorporating protective agents such as stabilizers, additives, and excipients, and by carefully controlling various lyophilization conditions.

Commonly used protectant include saccharides, polyols, polymers, surfactants, some proteins and amino acids etc. We usually add 8% (mass ratio by volume) of trehalose and mannitol as lyoprotectant. Trehalose can significantly prevent the alter of the protein secondary structure, the extension and aggregation of proteins during freeze-drying process; mannitol is also a universal applied protectant and fillers, which can reduce the aggregation of certain proteins after lyophilization.

Our protein products do not contain carrier protein or other additives (such as bovine serum albumin (BSA), human serum albumin (HSA) and sucrose, etc., and when lyophilized with the solution with the lowest salt content, they often cannot form A white grid structure, but a small amount of protein is deposited in the tube during the freeze-drying process, forming a thin or invisible transparent protein layer.

Reminder: Before opening the tube cap, we recommend that you quickly centrifuge for 20-30 seconds in a small centrifuge, so that the protein attached to the tube cap or the tube wall can be aggregated at the bottom of the tube. Our quality control procedures ensure that each tube contains the correct amount of protein, and although sometimes you can't see the protein powder, the amount of protein in the tube is still very precise.
