Gene Information

human ... BAX(581)

General description

Anti-BAX antibody detects endogenous levels of total BAX protein.
The BAX (BCL2 (B-cell lymphoma 2) associated X, apoptosis regulator) gene is mapped to human chromosome 19q13.33. It codes for α-helical globular protein. The protein contains eight amphipathic helices around a hydrophobic helix. Bax is known to be mostly localized in the cytoplasm.

Immunogen

The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human Bax.

Immunogen Range: 133-182

Application

Anti-BAX, C-Terminal antibody produced in rabbit has been used in western blotting analysis.

Biochem/physiol Actions

BAX (BCL2 (B-cell lymphoma 2) associated X, apoptosis regulator) is predominantly associated with cellular homeostasis, cell cycle and pathogenesis of cell death particularly in cancer cells. In response to an apoptotic stimulus, Bax brings about mitochondrial dysfunction and apoptosis. Oligomerization of bax promotes mitochondrial outer membrane permeabilization.
