Description
This antibody recognizes a protein of 21kDa, identified as the Bax protein. The Bax antibody is highly specific and shows no cross-reaction with Bcl-2 alpha or Bcl-X protein. Bcl-2 blocks cell death following a variety of stimuli. Bax has extensive amino acid homology with Bcl-2 and it homodimerizes and forms heterodimers with Bcl-2. Overexpression of Bax accelerates apoptotic death induced by cytokine deprivation in an IL-3 dependent cell line, and the protein also counters the death repressor activity of Bcl-2.

Notes
For research use only.
Applications Notes
The concentration stated for each application is a general starting point. Variations in protocols, secondaries and substrates may require the Bax antibody to be titered up or down for optimal performance.1. Staining of formalin-fixed tissues requires boiling tissue sections in 1mM EDTA buffer, pH 7.5-8.5, for 10-20 min followed by cooling at RT for 20 minutes.2. The prediluted format is supplied in a dropper bottle and is optimized for use in IHC. After epitope retrieval step (if required), drip mAb solution onto the tissue section and incubate at RT for 30 min.
