AIFM1 (apoptosis inducing factor mitochondria associated 1) codes for apoptosis-inducing factor 1(AIF). It is located on human chromosome Xq26.1. AIF is a caspase-independent cell death effector.
Immunogen
Purified recombinant fragment of human AIF expressed in E.coli. Mouse monoclonal antibody raised against AIF
Biochem/physiol Actions
AIFM1 (apoptosis inducing factor mitochondria associated 1) possesses redox activity, which helps in oxidative phosphorylation. In the mitochondria, AIFM1 helps in assembling or maintaining the mitochondrial respiratory complexes I and III. It plays a vital role in apoptosis. This gene is associated with COXPD6 (combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency, encephalomyopathy, Cowchock syndrome and X-linked deafness with neuropathy.
Physical form
Ascitic fluid containing 0.03% sodium azide.
