DescriptionPurified mouse monoclonal antibody generated by immunizing BALB/c mice with the specified immunogen and fusing splenocytes with SP2/0-AG14 plasmacytoma cells (see application references). Recognizes the ~24-26 kDa bcl-2 protein.
BackgroundThe bcl-2 proto-oncogene is encoded by a gene 230 kb in size that gives rise to a ~24-26 kDa protein which has been localized to the mitochondrial membrane. Although some data exists for implicating bcl-2 as a novel GTP binding protein, the major function of bcl-2 appears to be an inhibitor of apoptosis or "programmed cell death". It has now been well documented that bcl-2 becomes deregulated in tumor cells as a result of translocation into the immunoglobulin heavy-chain locus and is therefore constitutively activated in B cell malignancies (i.e. follicular lymphoma and chronic lymphocytic leukemia). In addition, bcl-2 has also been shown to protect mammalian cells from sodium azide, colchicine, DNA, RNA, and protein-synthesis inhibitors, as well as steroids, heat shock and irradiation.
