Bcl-w BH3 Domain Antibody
Purified Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody (Pab)

Catalog # Source: Lot # Size:
AP1305a Rabbit SH020826G 0.1 mg
Concentration: Accession: Clone Name: Isotype:
0.25 mg/ml NP_004041, Q92843 RB0972 Rabbit Ig
Applications: Reactivity: MW (kDa):
WB, IHC, E H, M 20774 Da
Target/Specificity:
This antibody was developed against a synthetic peptide corresponding within amino acid residues 1-100 of human Bcl-W.
Other Names:
Bcl2-like protein 2; BCL2L2
Application Data:

Western blot analysis of anti-Bcl-w BH3 domain Pab (Cat. #AP1305a) in HL-60 cell lysate. Bcl-w BH3 domain (arrow) was detected using purified Pab. Secondary HRP-anti-rabbit was used for signal visualization with chemiluminescence.

(TOP)Formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded human cancer tissue reacted with the primary antibody, which was peroxidase-conjugated to the secondary antibody, followed by DAB staining. This data demonstrates the use of this antibody for immunohistochemistry; clinical relevance has not been evaluated. BC = breast carcinoma; HC = hepatocarcinoma. (BUTTOM)Formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded human breast carcinoma tissue reacted with Bcl-w BH3 Domain Antibody (Cat.#AP1305a), which was peroxidase-conjugated to the secondary antibody, followed by DAB staining. This data demonstrates the use of this antibody for immunohistochemistry; clinical relevance has not been evaluated.

Background:
Bcl-w is a member of the BCL-2 protein family. The proteins of this family form hetero- or homodimers and act as anti- and pro-apoptotic regulators. Expression of this gene in cells has been shown to contribute to reduced cell apoptosis under cytotoxic conditions. Studies of the related gene in mice indicated a role in the survival of NGF- and BDNF-dependent neurons. Mutation and knockout studies of the mouse gene demonstrated an essential role in adult spermatogenesis.
