Polyclonal
unconjugated
Restrictions
For Research Use only
Format
Liquid
Buffer
PBS containing 0.02 % sodium azide.
Preservative
Sodium azide
Precaution of Use
WARNING: Reagents contain sodium azide. Sodium azide is very toxic if ingested or inhaled. Avoid contact with skin, eyes, or clothing. Wear eye or face protection when handling. If skin or eye contact occurs, wash with copious amounts of water. If ingested or inhaled, contact a physician immediately. Sodium azide yields toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide-containing compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in lead or copper plumbing.
Handling Advice
Avoid freezing and thawing repeatly.

DEDAF
Background
Apoptosis is related to many diseases and induced by a family of cell death receptors and their ligands.Cell death signals are transduced by death domain (DD) death effector domain (DED), and caspase recruitment domain (CARD) containing molecules.Several molecules including caspases and adaptor FADD contain DEDs.A novel protein that interacts with DED of caspase-8 and 10, and FADD was identified recently and designated DEDAF for DED associated factor.DEDAF is identical to the transcriptional repressor RYBP.DEDAF/RYBP is expressed in multiple tissues and cell lines.DEDAF interacts with FADD and augments the formation of CD95/FADD/capase-8 complexes at the cell membrane, and interacts with DED-containing DNA biding protein (DEDD) in the nucleus indicating it is involved in the regulation of both cytoplasmic and nuclear events of apoptosis.
