Rab5a is a member of RAS oncogene family. The small GTPase, Rab5a is a crucial regulatory component of the endocytic pathway. Activation of Rab5a is mediated by GDP-GTP exchange factors (GEFs) that generate the Rab5-GTP complex. Recombinant human Rab5a was expressed in E.coli and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques.
