Recombinant Human RGS17, His-tagged

• Cat.No.: RGS17-3639H
• Product Overview: Recombinant human RGS17 protein, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E.coli and purified by using conventional chromatography (1-210aa).

Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: Human
• Tag: His
• Description: RGS17, also known as regulator of G-protein signaling 17, attenuates the signaling activity of G-proteins by binding to activated, GTP-bound G alpha subunits and acting as a GTPase activating protein (GAP), increasing the rate of conversion of the GTP to GDP. This hydrolysis allows the G alpha subunits to bind G beta/gamma subunit heterodimers, forming inactive G-protein heterotrimers, thereby terminating the signal. It plays an important role in termination of signalling by mu opioid receptors and development of tolerance to opioid analgesic drugs.
