General description

BCL2 (B-cell lymphoma 2) consists of pro- and antiapoptotic functions. It belongs to BCL2 family of proteins. It is mapped to chromosome 18q21.3 .

Immunogen

Peptide sequence around aa. 54-58 (G-H-T-P-H), according to the protein BCL2.

Physical form

Solution in phosphate-buffered saline containing 0.02% sodium azide and 50% glycerol

Target description

Suppresses apoptosis in a variety of cell systems including factor-dependent lymphohematopoietic and neural cells. Regulates cell death by controlling the mitochondrial membrane permeability. Appears to function in a feedback loop system with caspases. Inhibits caspase activity either by preventing the release of cytochrome c from the mitochondria and/or by binding to the apoptosis-activating factor (APAF-1).
