Rabbit polyclonal antibody raised against synthetic peptide of BIRC7.
Immunogen:
A synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acids 199-217 of human BIRC7.
Sequence:
PELPTPRREVQSESAQEPG
Host:
Rabbit
Reactivity:
Human, Mouse, Rat
Specificity:
Livin is a short-lived protein that is thought to be degraded by the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. Thus users may want to do a time course when examining the effects of treatments on Livin expression. Users are encouraged to refer to the literature for additional information; for example, Ma et al. 2006. Livin has been shown to undergo proteolytic cleavage during apoptosis. Thus the molecular weight of Livin observed on Western blots may vary depending on the presence of absence of cleavage fragments.
Form:
Liquid
Recommend Usage:
Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) (1:1000-1:5000) Immunoprecipitation (1:50-1:200) Western Blot (1:1000-1:2000) The optimal working dilution should be determined by the end user.

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the family of inhibitor of apoptosis proteins (IAP) and contains a single copy of a baculovirus IAP repeat (BIR) as well as a RING-type zinc finger domain. The BIR domain is essential for inhibitory activity and interacts with caspases, while the RING finger domain sometimes enhances antiapoptotic activity but does not inhibit apoptosis alone. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. The two isoforms have different antiapoptotic properties, with isoform alpha protecting cells from apoptosis induced by staurosporine and isoform b protecting cells from apoptosis induced by etoposide.
