High impact information on Rap1a

 

Anatomical context of Rap1a

  • Coincident induction of K rev-1/rap 1A, rap 1B and H-ras mRNAs in the rat spinal cord by noxious stimulation [4].
 

Associations of Rap1a with chemical compounds

  • It had previously been shown that a rap1 protein (also named Krev-1 or smg p21) could be phosphorylated on serine residues by the cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) in vitro as well as in intact platelets stimulated by prostaglandin E1 [5].
 

Other interactions of Rap1a

 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Rap1a

  • We report here using Northern blot analysis with these cDNA probes that noxious stimulation causes a marked and coincident increase in rap 1A, rap 1B and H-ras mRNAs in the rat spinal cord [4].
