Form: liquid (Supplied in 25 mM HEPES pH 7.2, 40 mM NaCl and 5 mM DTT)

Activity: 1 pmol of REP-1 will mediate transfer of 2 pmol of geranylgeraniol by RabGGTase onto 1 pmol of Rab7 in 3 minutes.

Description:
C-terminal His-tagged REP-1 (Rab escort protein-1) binds to a wide range of RabGGTase with nanomolar affinities and supports the prenylation of RabGTPase mediated by RabGGTase.
