A synthetic peptide for use as a blocking control in assays to test for specificity of ARF1 antibody, Alternative Names: ARF1 control peptide, ARF1 antibody Blocking Peptide, Anti-ARF1 Blocking Peptide, ADP-ribosylation factor 1 Blocking Peptide, ARF1, ARF-1, ARF 1, ARF-1 Blocking Peptide, ARF 1 Blocking Peptide
ADP-ribosylation factor 1 (ARF1) is a member of the human ARF gene family. The family members encode small guanine nucleotide-binding proteins that stimulate the ADP-ribosyltransferase activity of cholera toxin and play a role in vesicular trafficking as activators of phospholipase D. The gene products, including 6 ARF proteins and 11 ARF-like proteins, constitute a family of the RAS superfamily. The ARF proteins are categorized as class I (ARF1, ARF2 and ARF3), class II (ARF4 and ARF5) and class III (ARF6), and members of each class share a common gene organization. The ARF1 protein is localized to the Golgi apparatus and has a central role in intra-Golgi transport.
