Application & Usage | The peptide is used for blocking the antibody activity of active MAP-1. It usually blocks the antibody activity completely in Western blot analysis by incubating the peptide with equal volume of antibody for 30 minutes at 37°C |
Other Names | Modulator of apoptosis 1, MAP-1, Moap1 |
Target/Specificity | MAP-1 |
Formulation | 50 µg (0.2 mg/ml) in phosphate buffered saline (PBS), pH 7.2, containing 0.1% BSA and 0.02% thimerosal. |
Reconstitution & Storage | -20 °C |

Function | Retrotransposon-derived protein that forms virion-like capsids (PubMed:34413232). Acts as an effector of BAX during apoptosis: enriched at outer mitochondria membrane and associates with BAX upon induction of apoptosis, facilitating BAX-dependent mitochondrial outer membrane permeabilization and apoptosis (By similarity). Required for death receptor-dependent apoptosis (By similarity). When associated with RASSF1, promotes BAX conformational change and translocation to mitochondrial membranes in response to TNF and TNFSF10 stimulation (By similarity). Also promotes autophagy: promotes phagophore closure via association with ATG8 proteins (PubMed:33783314). Acts as an inhibitor of the NFE2L2/NRF2 pathway via interaction with SQSTM1: interaction promotes dissociation of SQSTM1 inclusion bodies that sequester KEAP1, relieving inactivation of the BCR(KEAP1) complex (By similarity). |
Cellular Location | Cytoplasm, cytosol {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q96BY2}. Mitochondrion outer membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q96BY2}. Extracellular vesicle membrane. Note=Forms virion-like extracellular vesicles that are released from cells. |
Tissue Location | Widely expressed, including in the brain. High expression levels in testis. |
