Efficacy of RAB2A gene silencing was verified by qPCR (f). Bars, 2 μm. **, P &lt; 0.01."
NCBI gene IDs:

Figure legend: "(a) Total cellular lysates from HEK293T cells transfected with myc-VPS39 or VPS41 were incubated with GST-empty vector (EV), RAB2A-S20N (SN), or RAB2A-Q65L (QL) proteins bound to glutathione sepharose beads. Immunoblotting was performed with anti-myc antibody. Input lysates are also shown. GST proteins loaded in gels were stained with CBB."
