BAX, also known as Bcl-2-like protein 4, serves as a critical pro-apoptotic regulator within the intrinsic mitochondrial death pathway. As a member of the Bcl-2 protein family, BAX plays an essential role in determining cell fate by promoting mitochondrial outer membrane permeabilization, leading to cytochrome c release and subsequent caspase activation. Understanding BAX expression and function is fundamental to research in cancer biology, where dysregulated apoptosis contributes to tumor development and therapeutic resistance, as well as in neurodegenerative disease and developmental biology studies.
This recombinant monoclonal antibody, clone 24D12, offers the reproducibility and consistency that demanding research applications require. Generated using recombinant technology with a sequence-defined approach, this antibody eliminates the lot-to-lot variability often encountered with traditional hybridoma-derived reagents, ensuring your experimental results remain comparable across extended studies.
Validated across multiple detection platforms, this antibody provides flexibility for diverse experimental workflows. Western blot analysis demonstrates clean detection of BAX at the expected 21 kDa molecular weight across multiple human cell lines, including HeLa, HEK293, A549, and THP-1, confirming reliable performance in both adherent and suspension cell models. Immunohistochemistry validation in human testis tissue sections shows specific staining patterns suitable for tissue-based expression studies. Flow cytometry analysis in HeLa cells reveals distinct positive population shifts compared to isotype controls, enabling quantitative assessment of intracellular BAX levels at the single-cell level.
This antibody is particularly well-suited for researchers investigating apoptotic signaling mechanisms, screening therapeutic compounds targeting cell death pathways, or characterizing BAX expression patterns in human disease models.
