Mouse Anti-Bcl-X (Apoptosis regulator Bcl-X, B cell lymphoma 2 like, BCL XL/S, Bcl-2-like protein 1, Bcl2-L-1, BCL2L, Bcl2l1, BCLX, BclXL, BclXs, Protein phosphatase 1 regulatory subunit 52 (PPP1R52)) (APC)
(Apoptosis regulator Bcl-X, B cell lymphoma 2 like, BCL XL/S, Bcl-2-like protein 1, Bcl2-L-1, BCL2L, Bcl2l1, BCLX, BclXL, BclXs, Protein phosphatase 1 regulatory subunit 52 (PPP1R52))

Recognizes a protein of 27kDa, identified as the Bcl-X protein. This MAb shows no cross-reaction with Bcl-2a or Bax protein. Bcl-X has two isoforms, Bcl-XL (long), a 241 amino acid protein which suppresses cell death. And Bcl-XS (short), a 178 amino acid protein lacking a 63 amino acid domain which functions as a dominant inhibitor of Bcl-2. This MAb reacts with both Bcl-XS and Bcl-XL proteins.

Applications:  Suitable for use in Immunofluorescence, Flow Cytometry, Western Blot, Immunoprecipitation, Immunohistochemistry. Other applications not tested.
Recommended Dilution
Flow Cytometry: 0.5-1ug/million cells Immunofluorescence: 0.5-1ug/ml Western Blot: 0.5-1ug/ml Immunoprecipitation: 0.5-1ug/500ug protein lysate Immunohistochemistry: Frozen & Formalin-fixed: 0.5-1ug/ml for 30 minutes at RT (Staining of formalin-fixed tissues requires boiling tissue sections in 1mM EDTA buffer, pH 7.5-8.5, for 10-20 min followed by cooling at RT for 20 minutes Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
Positive Control
Jurkat, K562, HL-60, or HeLa Cells. Reed-Sternberg cells in Hodgkin’s lymphoma.
Storage and Stability
