Protocols
- 4272:
- IHC / Paraffin, Western Blotting
Specificity / Sensitivity
Cytochrome c Antibody detects endogenous levels of cytochrome c protein.
Source / Purification
Polyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acids 67-78 of human cytochrome c. Antibodies are purified by protein A and peptide affinity chromatography.
Western Blotting
Western analysis of cell extracts from human (HeLa and Jurkat), monkey (COS), mouse (L929), rat (C6) and purified bovine cytochrome c, using Cytochrome c Antibody.
IHC-P (paraffin)
Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded human colon carcinoma, using Cytochrome c Antibody.
IHC-P (paraffin)
Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded human prostate carcinoma, using Cytochrome c Antibody.
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).
