Background and References

October 1, 2021 2 https://www.prosci-inc.com/rhot1-antibody-8027.html The Ras homolog family member T1 (RHOT) is an atypical Rho Ca2+-binding GTPase that localizes to the mitochondria (1). RHOT1, the related RHOT2, the adaptor protein BACKGROUND: Milton, and the PTEN induced putative kinase 1 (PINK1), form a complex that is involved in axonal transport of mitochondria (2,3). Both PINK1 and target RHOT1 for phosphorylation and degradation, causing the arrest of mitochondrial motility (4).
