Reactivity: Human

Application: Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin-embedded Sections) (IHC (p))

Catalog no.: ABIN125651

Additional Information

Alternative name: Apoptosis Protease Activating Factor 1 (Apaf-1)

Immunogen: A synthetic peptide derived from C-terminus of human Apaf-1.

Format: Ig-fraction

Specificity: Apaf-1 is a cytosolic protein that rests in a latent state until bound by cytochrome c (Apaf-2). The resulting Apaf-1/cytochrome c complex associates with the zymogen form of caspase-9 (Apaf-3) in the presence of dATP or ATP, promoting the autocatalytic activation of caspase-9. This antibody will be useful in studies of the activation of caspases through Apaf-1 and also in metastatic melanomas where Apaf-1 is inactivated which leads to defects in the execution of apoptotic cell death. This antibody cross reacts with mouse and rat.

Application Details

Application Notes: Titer/Working Dilution: This antibody may be diluted to a titer of 1:50-1:100 in an ABC method. However, depending on the staining conditions employed, we suggest that final dilution should be determined by the user. Staining Protocol: We suggest an incubation period of 30 minutes at room temperature. However, depending upon the fixation conditions and the staining system employed, optimal incubation conditions should be determined by the user. Formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue sections require high temperature antigen unmasking with 10 mM citrate buffer, pH 6.0 prior to immunostaining. Positive Control: Testis. Cellular localization: Cytoplasmic

Concentration: 100ug/ml approximately

Buffer: Purified immunoglobulin fraction of rabbit antiserum against Apaf-1 containing sodium azide as preservative.

Storage: Store the antibody at 2-8o c. Do not use it beyond the expiration date stated on the label.

Research Area: Apoptosis/Necrosis

Restrictions: For Research Use. CE-certified for In Vitro Diagnostics (IVD) Use in the European Union
