Protocol Available protocols: Western Blotting, Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin) Specificity / Sensitivity Cytochrome c (D18C7) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody recognizes endogenous levels of total cytochrome c protein. Species Reactivity: Human, Mouse, Rat, Monkey Source / Purification Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Pro72 of human cytochrome c protein. Background Cytochrome c is a well conserved electron-transport protein and is part of the respiratory chain localized to mitochondrial intermembrane space (1). Upon apoptotic stimulation, cytochrome c released from mitochondria associates with procaspase-9 (47 kDa)/Apaf 1. This complex processes caspase-9 from inactive proenzyme to its active form (2). This event further triggers caspase-3 activation and eventually leads to apoptosis (3). Alternate Names CYC; CYCS; Cytochrome c; cytochrome c, somatic; HCS; THC4 Specification REACTIVITY: H M R Mk SENSITIVITY: Endogenous MW (kDa): 14 Source/Isotype: Rabbit IgG
