Key features and details | |
Cat. No. | MABL-487 |
Name | Anti-Bax (active monomer) mAbs |
Clone No. | AFD- 6A7 |
From | Recombinant Antibody |
Isotype | Engineer antibody |
Application | IP, WB, IHC |
Species Reactivity | Rat, Human, Mouse |
Basic Information | |
Specificity | In the presence of nonionic detergent, the antibody avidly binds the monomeric form of Bax, but not Bax complexed with either Bcl-XL or Bcl-2. [6A7 ] Bax antibody only recognizes conformationally changed active Bax. |
Alternative Name | Bcl-2-like protein 4; Apoptosis regulator BAX; Bcl-2-like protein 4; Bcl2-L- 4 |
UniProt | Q07812 |
Immunogen | KLH conjugated to peptides corresponding to amino acids 3–16 of murine Bax (CGSGEQLGSGGPTSS), amino acids 3–16 of human Bax (CGSGEQPRGGGPTSS), and amino acids 12–24 shared by Bax from both species (CGPTSSEQIMKTGA). |
