Homo sapiens BCL2-associated agonist of cell death (BAD), transcript variant 2
Synonyms:
BBC2; BCL2L8
Immunogen
A synthetic peptide corresponding to residues in the N-term of human Bad was used as immunogen. The antibody does not cross-react with other Bcl-2 members.
Buffer
50 mM Tris-Glycine (pH 7.4), 0.15 M NaCl, 40% Glycerol, 0.01% sodium azide and 0.05% BSA.
Bad is a pro-apoptotic member of the Bcl-2 family. Bad will bind preferentially Bcl-xL over Bcl-2 through its partial (9-16 a.a) BH3 domain. Additionally, Bad can reverse the death repressor activity of Bcl-xL but not of Bcl-2. Upon dephosphorylation, activated Bad translocates to the mitochondria and displace Bcl-2 from tBid sequestration to initiate mitochondrial dysfunction. The switching on/off of its phosphorylation by growth/survival factors regulates Bad activity.
