FAS antibody (PE)

Catalog No. ABIN238439

Product Details anti-FAS Antibody (PE)

Target: FAS (TNF Receptor Superfamily, Member 6 (FAS))

Reactivity: Human

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This FAS antibody is conjugated to PE

Application: Flow Cytometry (FACS)

Specificity: The antibody LT95 reacts with CD95 (Fas/APO-1), a 46 kDa single chain type I glycoprotein of the tumour necrosis factor/nerve growth factor (TNF/NGF) receptor superfamily, expressed on a variety of normal and neoplastic cells. It seems that the antibody LT95 does not induce Fas mediated apoptosis, although it cross-blocks anti-Fas DX2 antibody that recognizes a functional epitope of Fas molecule.

Characteristics: Synonyms: FASLG receptor, Apo-1 antigen, APT1, FAS1, TNFRSF6, Tumor necrosis factor receptorsuperfamily member 6

Purification: Size-exclusion chromatography.

Immunogen: HUT-78 human T cell lymphoma cell line.

Clone: LT95

Isotype: IgG1

Target Details for FAS

Target: FAS (TNF Receptor Superfamily, Member 6 (FAS))

Alternative Name: CD95 / FAS (FAS Products)

Background: CD95 (Fas, APO-1), a 46 kDa transmembrane glycoprotein, is a cell death receptor of the TNFR superfamily. Stimulation of CD95 results in aggregation of its intracellular death domains, formation of the death-inducing signaling complex (DISC) and activation of caspases. In type I cells caspase 3 is activated by high amounts of caspase 8 generated at the DISC, in type II cells low concentration of caspase 8 activates pathway leading to the release of cytochrome c from mitochondria and activation of caspase 3 by cytochom c. Besides its roles in induction of apoptosis, Fas also triggers pro-inflammatory cytokine responses.Synonyms: APT1, Apo-1 antigen, FAS1, FASLG receptor, TNFRSF6, Tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 6
