Bcl-xL Antibody

Bcl-xL Antibodyis available at Gentaur for Next week Delivery.

Description: Bcl-xL is a 30 kDa anti-apoptotic protein belonging to the Bcl-2 family. Bcl-xL prevents apoptosis throμgh two different mechanisms: by heterodimerization with an apoptotic protein to inhibit its apoptotic effect, and by its direct pore-forming effect on the outer-membrane of mitochondria to help maintain a normal membrane state under stress conditions. Bcl-xL can be cleaved by caspases upon apoptotic activation, which converts Bcl-xL from an antiapoptotic protein to a proapoptotic cleavage product. The cleavage product of Bcl-xL forms cytochrome c-releasing pores in the mitochondrial membrane to facilitate the apoptosis signaling pathway.

Immunogen Sequence:Synthetic peptide surrounding amino acid 56 of human Bcl-xL

Target Alternative Name:Bcl-xL, Bcl-xS, BCL2L1, BCL2-like 1 protein

Species Reactivities:Human, mouse, rat

Tag Line:/

Formulation:30 µg (0.5 mg/ml) affinity purified, rabbit anti-Bcl-xL polyclonal antibody in phosphate buffered saline (PBS), pH 7.2, containing 30% glycerol, 0.5% BSA, 0.01% thimerosal.

Purification: Affinity purified

Application:Western blot, Immunoprecipitation

Positive Control:/

Application And Usages:Western blotting (0.5-4 µg/ml) and immunoprecipitation (20 µ/ml). However, the optimal conditions should be determined individually. The antibody detects the 30 kDa Bcl-xL protein. It does not react with other Bcl-2 family members.

Handling:The antibody solution should be gently mixed before use.
