Mouse Anti-BIM (Bcl2-interacting Mediator of Cell Death, BimEL, BimL, BIM-alpha6, BIM-beta6, BIM-beta7, BAM, BCL2-like 11 Apoptosis Facilitator, Bcl-2-like Protein 11, BCL2L11, Bcl2-L-11, BOD) (MaxLight 650)
MaxLight™650 is a new Far-IR stable dye conjugate comparable to Alexa Fluor™647, DyLight™649, Cy5™ and offers better labeling efficiency, brighter imaging and increased immunodetection. Absorbance (655nm); Emission (676nm); Extinction Coefficient 250,000.
Bim belongs to Bcl-2 family of proteins containing Bcl-2 homology domain3 (BH3). It is proapoptotic and exerts its effects by interacting with prosurvival members of the Bcl-2 family like Bcl-2, Bcl-XL and Bcl-w. It exhibits three splice variants; BimL, BimS and BimEL. They all share homology in their C-terminal BH3 domain and are ubiquitously expressed. BimS is the strongest of them with respect to the proapoptotic capacity.
