Form (Short):
liquid
Formulation:
Liquid. In PBS containing 0.02% sodium azide.
Handling Advice:
After opening, prepare aliquots and store at -20°C.Avoid freeze/thaw cycles.
Immunogen:
Recombinant mouse Apaf-1 (aa 1-97) containing the N-terminal CARD domain.
Long Description:
Monoclonal Antibody. Recognizes the CARD domain of human and mouse Apaf-1. Does not cross-react with rat Apaf-1. Isotype: Rat IgG2akappa. Clone: 18H2. Applications: ELISA, ICC, IP, WB. Liquid. In PBS containing 0.02% sodium azide. Apaf-1 is a cytoplasmic protein that forms one of the central hubs in the apoptosis regulatory network. It contains (from the N terminal) a caspase recruitment domain (CARD), an ATPase domain (NB-ARC), few short helical domains and then several copies of the WD40 repeat domain. Upon binding cytochrome c and dATP, this protein forms an oligomeric apoptosome, mediates the cytochrome c-dependent autocatalytic activation of pro-caspase-9 (Apaf-3), leading to the activation of caspase-3 and apoptosis.
