Bcl2 Associated X Protein (BAX) Antibody

Por favor contáctenos para obtener información detallada sobre el precio y disponibilidad.
Description
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the BCL2 protein family. BCL2 family members form hetero or homodimers and act as anti or pro-apoptotic regulators that are involved in a wide variety of cellular activities. This protein forms a heterodimer with BCL2, and functions as an apoptotic activator. This protein is reported to interact with, and increase the opening of, the mitochondrial voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC), which leads to the loss in membrane potential and the release of cytochrome c. The expression of this gene is regulated by the tumor suppressor P53 and has been shown to be involved in P53-mediated apoptosis. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants, which encode different isoforms, have been reported for this gene.

Descripción
BCL2 associated X, apoptosis regulator (BAX) is a pro-apoptotic protein that plays a critical role in mitochondrial-mediated apoptosis, a key process in regulating cell death BAX is activated in response to various stress signals, including DNA damage and oxidative stress, and it translocates to the mitochondria, where it promotes the release of cytochrome c, leading to the activation of caspases and cell death BAX functions as a counterpart to anti-apoptotic proteins like BCL2, which inhibit apoptosis BAX's activity is tightly regulated, as excessive activation can lead to uncontrolled cell death and tissue damage Its dysregulation has been implicated in several diseases, including cancer, where reduced BAX activity allows tumor cells to evade apoptosis, contributing to tumor progression and resistance to therapy BAX also has a role in regulating immune responses, particularly in T-cell development and survival, making it crucial for immune system homeostasis Additionally, BAX is involved in neurodegenerative diseases, where excessive cell death in neurons leads to conditions like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's

BAX antibody
BAX, also named as BCL2L4, is a pro-apoptotic member of the Bcl-2 protein family, which plays a pivotal role in controlling cell life and death. Bax largely localizes to the cytoplasm of healthy cells, but accumulates on the outer mitochondrial membrane upon apoptosis induction(PMID: 9108035). BAX can commit a cell to apoptosis by translocation from the cytosol to the mitochondria and permeabilization of the outer mitochondrial membrane, which leads to the release of cytochrome c from mitochondria(PMID: 21763611). The expression of BAX is upregulated by the tumor suppressor protein p53, and BAX has been shown to be involved in p53-mediated apoptosis(PMID: 8183579).
