ENDOG (Endonuclease G) is a 28kDa mitochondria-localized protein mapped to human chromosome 9q34.1. However, in presence of certain conditions it can translocate to the nucleus through the BNIP3 (Bcl-2/adenovirus E1B 19kDa protein-interacting protein 3) cell death pathway.
Immunogen
Mouse monoclonal EndoG antibody was raised against a recombinant protein corresponding to amino acids 51 – 140 of human EndoG.
Application
Monoclonal Anti-EndoG antibody produced in mouse is suitable for indirect ELISA and western blot.
Biochem/physiol Actions
ENDOG (Endonuclease G) is a mitochondrial apoptotic DNase involved in the BNIP3 (Bcl-2/adenovirus E1B 19kDa protein-interacting protein 3) cell death pathway. During mitochondrial release and nuclear translocation of EndoG, BNIP3 interacts with the voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC) to facilitate the process in the nucleus, it cleaves chromatin apoptotic DNA without the need of caspase activity. ENDOG causes DNA fragmentation during and after apoptosis. It is linked to cardiac hypertrophy and Parkinson′s disease.

Apoptotic endonuclease G (EndoG) is responsible for DNA fragmentation both during and after cell death. Previous studies demonstrated that genetic inactivation of EndoG is cytoprotective against various pro-apoptotic stimuli; however, specific inhibitors for EndoG are not available. In this study
BNIP3 is a proapoptotic protein that induces cell death through a mitochondria-mediated pathway. We reported previously that mitochondrial localization of BNIP3 and translocation of EndoG from mitochondria to the nucleus are critical steps of the BNIP3 pathway. It is not
By using a PCR-based screening of a somatic cell hybrid panel and FISH, we have assigned the loci of mitochondrial single-stranded DNA-binding protein (SSBP), mitochondrial transcription factor A (TCF6), and mitochondrial endonuclease G (ENDOG) genes to human chromosomes 7q34, 10q21
