Immunohistochemistry (IHC)

(Formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded human testis tissue reacted with Bcl-2 BH3 Domain Antibody, which was peroxidase-conjugated to the secondary antibody, followed by DAB staining. This data demonstrates the use of this antibody for immunohistochemistry; clinical relevance has not been evaluated.)

Immunofluorescence (IF)

(Confocal immunofluorescent analysis of Bcl-2 Antibody (BH3 Domain Specific) with Hela cell followed by Alexa Fluor 488-conjugated goat anti-rabbit lgG (green). DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclear (blue).)

Western Blot (WB)

(Left panel, analysis of Bcl-2 BH3 domain exposure in HEK293 cells transfected with a plasmid coding for a DNA-binding domain-deleted construct of Nur77 (GFP-Nur77/dDBD) by using AP1303a antibody for immunoprecipitation (IP) and a different Bcl-2 antibody for western blot.

Related Product Information for anti-BCL2L2 antibody

BCL2 is integral outer mitochondrial membrane protein that blocks the apoptotic death of some cells such as lymphocytes. Constitutive expression of BCL2, such as in the case of translocation of BCL2 to Ig heavy chain locus, is thought to be the cause of follicular lymphoma.

NCBI Description

This gene encodes a member of the BCL-2 protein family. The proteins of this family form hetero- or homodimers and act as anti- and pro-apoptotic regulators. Expression of this gene in cells has been shown to contribute to reduced cell apoptosis under cytotoxic conditions. Studies of the related gene in mice indicated a role in the survival of NGF- and BDNF-dependent neurons. Mutation and knockout studies of the mouse gene demonstrated an essential role in adult spermatogenesis. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. Read-through transcription also exists between this gene and the neighboring downstream PABPN1 (poly(A) binding protein, nuclear 1) gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2010]

Uniprot Description

BCL2L2: Promotes cell survival. Blocks dexamethasone-induced apoptosis. Mediates survival of postmitotic Sertoli cells by suppressing death-promoting activity of BAX. Expressed in a wide range of tissues with highest levels in brain, spinal cord, testis, pancreas, heart, spleen and mammary glands. Moderate levels found in thymus, ovary and small intestine. Not detected in salivary gland, muscle or liver. Also expressed in cell lines of myeloid, fibroblast and epithelial origin. Not detected in most lymphoid cell lines. Belongs to the Bcl-2 family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.
