DescriptionAnti-Bid Antibody
Background InformationBid, a BH3 domain-containing proapoptotic Bcl-2 family member, is known to interact with Bcl-2 and Bax. It has been reported that Bid induces cytochrome c release from mitochondria following cleavage by caspase-8 in response to apoptotic stimuli transmitted through cell surface death receptors. The cytochrome c releasing activity of Bid was antagonized by Bcl-2. Mutation in the SH3 domain can diminish the cytochrome c releasing activity. In animal model studies, Bid-deficient mice are found resistant to the lethal effects of death factor signals relayed through Fas.

Entrez Gene Number
Entrez Gene SummaryThis gene encodes a death agonist that heterodimerizes with either agonist BAX or antagonist BCL2. The encoded protein is a member of the BCL-2 family of cell death regulators. It is a mediator of mitochondrial damage induced by caspase-8 (CASP8); CASP8 cleaves this encoded protein, and the COOH-terminal part translocates to mitochondria where it triggers cytochrome c release. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found, but the full-length nature of some variants has not been defined.

UniProt Number
UniProt SummaryFUNCTION: SwissProt: P55957 # The major proteolytic product p15 BID allows the release of cytochrome c (By similarity). Isoform 1, isoform 2 and isoform 4 induce ICE-like proteases and apoptosis. Isoform 3 does not induce apoptosis. Counters the protective effect of Bcl-2.
SIZE: 195 amino acids; 21995 Da
SUBUNIT: Forms heterodimers either with the pro-apoptotic protein BAX or the anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2 (By similarity).
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm (By similarity). Mitochondrion membrane (By similarity). Note=When uncleaved, it is predominantly cytoplasmic. & BH3-interacting domain death agonist p15: Mitochondrion membrane (By similarity). Note=Translocates to mitochondria as an integral membrane protein (By similarity). & BH3-interacting domain death agonist p13: Mitochondrion membrane (By similarity). Note=Associated with the mitochondrial membrane (By similarity). & Isoform 1: Cytoplasm. & Isoform 3: Cytoplasm. & Isoform 2: Mitochondrion membrane. Note=A significant proportion of isoform 2 localizes to mitochondria, it may be cleaved constitutively.
TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Isoforms 2 and 3 are expressed in spleen, bone marrow, cerebral and cerebellar cortex. Isoform 2 is expressed in spleen, pancreas and placenta (at protein level). Isoform 3 is expressed in lung, pancreas and spleen (at protein level). Isoform 4 is expressed in lung and pancreas (at protein level).
DOMAIN: SwissProt: P55957 Intact BH3 motif is required by BIK, BID, BAK, BAD and BAX for their pro-apoptotic activity and for their interaction with anti-apoptotic members of the Bcl-2 family.
PTM: TNF-alpha induces a caspase-mediated cleavage of p22 BID into a major p15 and minor p13 and p11 products (By similarity). & Phosphorylated upon DNA damage, probably by ATM or ATR.
