General description

B-cell lymphoma 2 (BCL-2) is an anti-apoptotic and target gene of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB). The protein is expressed in the nuclear envelope, mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum. The gene encoding BCL-2 is localized on human chromosome 18q21. Human Bcl-2 (amino-acids 1-211) (GenBank Accession No. P10415) with C-terminal His tag, MW = 27 kDa, expressed in an E. coli expression system.

Application

Useful for the study of apoptosis, screening inhibitors and selectivity profiling.

Biochem/physiol Actions

B-cell lymphoma 2 (BCL-2) inhibits apoptosis in cells and has been shown to be upregulated in adenomas.

Physical form

Formulated in 25 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0, 100 mM NaCl, 0.05% Tween-20, 30% glycerol and 3 mM DTT.

Preparation Note

Thaw on ice. Upon first thaw, briefly spin tube containing enzyme to recover full content of the tube. Aliquot enzyme into single use aliquots. Store remaining undiluted enzyme in aliquots at -70°C. Note: Enzyme is very sensitive to freeze/thaw cycles.

Changes in mass loading on the surface of acoustic biosensors result in output frequency shifts which provide precise measurements of analytes. Therefore, to detect a particular biomarker, the sensor delay path must be judiciously designed to maximize sensitivity and specificity.

Ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme 9 (Ubc9) is required for sumoylation and inhibits apoptosis via Bcl-2 by unknown mechanism. Methionine adenosyltransferase 2A (MAT2A) encodes for MATα2, the catalytic subunit of the MATII isoenzyme that synthesizes S-adenosylmethionine (SAMe). Ubc9, Bcl-2 and MAT2A expression are

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is one of the major causes of death and disability. Apoptosis after TBI contributes significantly to the final extent of tissue damage. The Bcl-2 family proteins are important apoptosis modulators which increased in injured neurons. Bcl-2

Apoptosis is a form of programmed cell death in multicellular organisms. Bcl-2 prevents apoptosis and promotes cellular survival by neutralizing BH3 domain-containing proteins, which directly activate the pore-forming proteins BAX and BAK. However, Bcl-2 is not known to regulate other

BCL-XL and BCL-2 are important targets for cancer treatment. BCL-XL specific proteolysis-targeting chimeras (PROTACs) have been developed to circumvent the on-target platelet toxicity associated with BCL-XL inhibition. However, they have minimal effects on cancer cells that are dependent on BCL-2
