| Format | Peptides are lyophilized in a solid powder format. Peptides can be reconstituted in solution using the appropriate buffer as needed. |
| Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 6 months. For long term storage store at -20°C. |
| Precautions | This product is for research use only. Not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
| Name | BAD |
|---|---|
| Synonyms | BBC6, BCL2L8 |
| Function | Promotes cell death. Successfully competes for the binding to Bcl-X(L), Bcl-2 and Bcl-W, thereby affecting the level of heterodimerization of these proteins with BAX. Can reverse the death repressor activity of Bcl-X(L), but not that of Bcl-2 (By similarity). Appears to act as a link between growth factor receptor signaling and the apoptotic pathways. |
| Cellular Location | Mitochondrion outer membrane. Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q61337}. Note=Colocalizes with HIF3A in the cytoplasm (By similarity). Upon phosphorylation, locates to the cytoplasm. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q61337} |
| Tissue Location | Expressed in a wide variety of tissues. |

Background
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the BCL-2family. BCL-2 family members are known to be regulators ofprogrammed cell death. This protein positively regulates cellapoptosis by forming heterodimers with BCL-xL and BCL-2, andreversing their death repressor activity. Proapoptotic activity ofthis protein is regulated through its phosphorylation. Proteinkinases AKT and MAP kinase, as well as protein phosphatasecalcineurin were found to be involved in the regulation of thisprotein. Alternative splicing of this gene results in twotranscript variants which encode the same isoform. [provided byRefSeq].

Foundational characteristics of cancer include proliferation, angiogenesis, migration, evasion of apoptosis, and cellular immortality. Find key markers for these cellular processes and antibodies to detect them.
The SUMOplot™ Analysis Program predicts and scores sumoylation sites in your protein. SUMOylation is a post-translational modification involved in various cellular processes, such as nuclear-cytosolic transport, transcriptional regulation, apoptosis, protein stability, response to stress, and progression through the cell cycle.
The Autophagy Receptor Motif Plotter predicts and scores autophagy receptor binding sites in your protein. Identifying proteins connected to this pathway is critical to understanding the role of autophagy in physiological as well as pathological processes such as development, differentiation, neurodegenerative diseases, stress, infection, and cancer.
