High impact information on RAP1B

  • In CHO-A(2A) cells, the stimulation of the A(2A)-receptor resulted in an activation of RAP1 and formation of RAP1-B-RAF complexes [1].
  • Three human cDNAs encoding new RAS-related cDNAs, designated RAP1A, RAP1B, and RAP2, have been isolated previously [2].
  • The three genes RAP1A, RAP1B, and RAP2 have been assigned to chromosome bands 1p12----p13, 12q14, and 13q34, respectively [2].
 

Biological context of RAP1B

  • Despite genomic polymorphism between strains, including sequences located within the open reading frame, defined RAP-1 B-cell surface epitopes and RAP-1 molecular size were conserved in both B. bovis and B. bigemina [3].
