{"product_id":"cst-62147sf","title":"CST,  62147SF, AIF (D39D2) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody (BSA and Azide Free)","description":"Monoclonal Antibody for studying PDCD8. Validated for WB,IHC,IF,IF. Highly specific and rigorously validated in-house, AIF (D39D2) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody (BSA and Azide Free) (CST #62147) is ready to ship.\n\n\u003cb\u003eProduct Usage Information\u003c\/b\u003e\nThis product is the carrier free version of product #5318. All data were generated using the same antibody clone in the standard formulation which contains BSA and glycerol. This formulation is ideal for use with technologies requiring specialized or custom antibody labeling, including fluorophores, metals, lanthanides, and oligonucleotides. It is not recommended for ChIP, ChIP-seq, CUT\u0026amp;RUN or CUT\u0026amp;Tag assays. If you require a carrier free formulation for chromatin profiling, please contact us . Optimal dilutions\/concentrations should be determined by the end user. BSA and Azide Free antibodies are quality control tested by size exclusion chromatography (SEC) to determine antibody integrity.\n\u003cb\u003eFormulation\u003c\/b\u003e\nSupplied in 1X PBS (10 mM Na 2 HPO 4 , 3 mM KCl, 2 mM KH 2 PO 4 , and 140 mM NaCl (pH 7.8)). BSA and Azide Free. For standard formulation of this product see product # 5318 .\n\u003cb\u003eStorage\u003c\/b\u003e\nStore at -20°C. This product will freeze at -20°C so it is recommended to aliquot into single-use vials to avoid multiple freeze\/thaw cycles. A slight precipitate may be present and can be dissolved by gently vortexing. This will not interfere with antibody performance.\n\u003cb\u003eSpecificity \/ Sensitivity\u003c\/b\u003e\nAIF (D39D2) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody (BSA and Azide Free) detects endogenous levels of total AIF protein.\nSpecies Reactivity: Human, Mouse, Rat, Monkey\n\u003cb\u003eSource \/ Purification\u003c\/b\u003e\nMonoclonal antibody was produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Ala520 of human AIF protein.\n\u003cb\u003eBackground\u003c\/b\u003e\nApoptosis-inducing factor (AIF, PDCD8) is a ubiquitously expressed flavoprotein that plays a critical role in caspase-independent apoptosis (reviewed in 1,2). AIF is normally localized to the mitochondrial intermembrane space and released in response to apoptotic stimuli (3). Treatment of isolated nuclei with recombinant AIF leads to early apoptotic events, such as chromatin condensation and large-scale DNA fragmentation (3). Studies of AIF knockout mice have shown that the apoptotic activity of AIF is cell type and stimuli-dependent. Also noted was that AIF was required for embryoid body cavitation, representing the first wave of programmed cell death during embryonic morphogenesis (4). Structural analysis of AIF revealed two important regions, the first having oxidoreductase activity and the second being a potential DNA binding domain (3,5). While AIF is redox-active and can behave as an NADH oxidase, this activity is not required for inducing apoptosis (6). Instead, recent studies suggest that AIF has dual functions, a pro-apoptotic activity in the nucleus via its DNA binding and an anti-apoptotic activity via the scavenging of free radicals through its oxidoreductase activity (2,7).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nAIF; AIFM1; apoptosis inducing factor mitochondria associated 1; Apoptosis-inducing factor 1, mitochondrial; apoptosis-inducing factor, mitochondrion-associated, 1; auditory neuropathy, X-linked recessive 1; AUNX1; CMT2D; CMTX4; COWCK; COXPD6; DFNX5; MGC111425; NADMR; NAMSD; PDCD8; programmed cell death 8 (apoptosis-inducing factor); Programmed cell death protein 8; SEMDHL; striatal apoptosis-inducing factor; testicular secretory protein Li 4\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H M R Mk\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 67\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46801027334313,"sku":"62147SF","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-62147sf","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
