Species enclosed in parentheses are predicted to react based on 100% sequence homology. Species cross-reactivity is determined by Western blot.
Specificity / Sensitivity
Bcl-xL (54H6) Rabbit mAb detects endogenous levels of total Bcl-xL protein. The antibody does not cross-react with other Bcl-2 family members.
Source / Purification
Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing rabbits with a synthetic peptide (KLH-coupled) corresponding to residues surrounding Asp61 of human Bcl-xL.
Western Blotting
Western blot analysis of extracts from Jurkat and HeLa (human), COS (monkey), NIH/3T3 and L929 (mouse), and PC12 and C6 (rat) cells, using Bcl-xL (54H6) Rabbit mAb.
IP
Immunoprecipitation of Bcl-xL from Jurkat cell extracts, using Bcl-xL (54H6) Rabbit mAb. Lane 1 is the lysate control, lane 2 is antibody alone and lane 3 is antibody plus lysate.
IHC-P (paraffin)
Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded human lung carcinoma, using Bcl-xL (54H6) Rabbit mAb.
IHC-P (paraffin)
Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded 4TI syngeneic mouse tumor, using Bcl-xL (54H6) Rabbit mAb # 2764.
IHC-P (paraffin)
Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded human colon carcinoma, using Bcl-xL (54H6) Rabbit mAb in the presence of control peptide (left) or Bcl-xL Blocking Peptide #1225 (right).
IHC-P (paraffin)
Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded human prostate carcinoma, showing cytoplasmic localization, using Bcl-xL (54H6) Rabbit mAb.
Background
Bcl-xL prevents apoptosis through two different mechanisms: by heterodimerization with an apoptotic protein to inhibit its apoptotic effect (1,2), and by its direct pore-forming effect on the outer membrane of mitochondria which helps maintain a normal membrane state under stress conditions (3). Bcl-xL is phosphorylated by JNK following treatment with microtubule-damaging agents such as paclitaxel, vinblastine and nocodazole (4,5).
