Scientific Data Images for BOK Antibody

Immunohistochemistry-Paraffin: BOK Antibody [NBP2-69987]

Immunohistochemistry-Paraffin: BOK Antibody [NBP2-69987] - (5ug/ml) staining of Human Kidney. Steamed antigen retrieval with citrate buffer pH 6, AP-staining.

Applications for BOK Antibody

Application

Recommended Usage

Immunohistochemistry

1:10 - 1:500

Immunohistochemistry-Paraffin

5 ug/ml

Peptide ELISA

1:8000

Western Blot

1:100-1:2000

Application Notes

Western blot: Preliminary experiments gave bands at approx 55kDa and 20kDa in Human Testis lysates after 1ug/ml antibody staining, and 17kDa in Mouse Spleen and Thymus lysates after 0.3ug/ml antibody staining. Please note that currently we cannot find an explanation in the literature for the bands we observe given the calculated size of 23.3kDa according to NP_115904.1. Both detected bands were successfully blocked by incubation with the immunizing peptide (and BLAST results with the immunizing peptide sequence did not identify any other proteins to explain the additional bands).

Background: BOK

Apoptosis or programmed cell death is a physiological cellular process characterized by cell shrinkage, membrane blebbing, DNA fragmentation, and release of Cytochrome C from the mitochondria. It is utilized by the organism to get rid of unwanted cells, which is critical for normal development and homeostasis of an organism. Disregulation of normal apoptosis process have been implicated in a variety of diseases, including cancer, autoimmune diseases, viral infections, etc. Programmed cell death occurs through complex cascades of cell signaling in which Bcl-2 family members, among others, play an important role.The Bcl-2 family of proteins regulate apoptosis as well as execute death signals at the mitochondrion. Members of this family include both pro- and anti-apoptotic proteins that hare homology sequences called Bcl-2 Homology domains (BH1-4) which mediate dimmer formation. The BH3 proteins, such as BID, NOXA, PUMA, BIK, BIM and BAD are all pro-apoptotic and share sequence homology within the amphipathic alpha-helical BH3 region, which is required for their apoptotic function. They may trigger release of death-inducing molecules such as Cytochrome C, Smac, and endonuclease G. Anti-apoptotic family members, including Bcl-2 and Bcl-XL, play inhibitory roles. Bcl-2 family proteins may form homodimers or heterodimers between pro- and anti-apoptotic members, the ratios of which determine the cell fate.
