Anti-Bag5 Antibody Picoband® Fluoro594 Conjugated
Product Specifications
Background
BAG family molecular chaperone regulator 5 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the BAG5 gene. The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the BAG1-related protein family. Bag5 is a negative regulator of both Hsp70 and parkin function that sensitizes dopaminergic neurons to injury-induced death and thus promotes neurodegeneration.

Host
Rabbit
Reactivity
Rat, Mouse, Human
Cross Reactivity
No cross-reactivity with other proteins
Immunogen
A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the C-terminus of human BAG5, different from the related mouse sequence by one amino acid, and from the related rat sequence by two amino acids.
Clonality
Polyclonal
Tissue Specificity
Expressed in the brain, heart, liver, skeletal muscle, pancreas and placenta. Isoform 1 is predominant in the brain and spinal cord. Isoform 4 is more abundant in the cerebellum. In the brain, broadly expressed in the amygdala, caudate nucleus, corpus callosum, hippocampus, hypothalamus, substantia nigra, subthalamic nucleus and thalamus. .
Applications
Flow Cytometry
Field of Research
Apoptosis, Apoptotic Markers, Cancer, Cell Biology, Cell Death, Intracellular, Invasion/Microenvironment, Metabolism, Metabolism Processes, Pathways and Processes
Purification
Immunogen affinity purified.
Form
Liquid
Function
Inhibits both auto-ubiquitination of PARK2 and ubiquitination of target proteins by PARK2 (By similarity) . May function as a nucleotide exchange factor for HSP/HSP70, promoting ADP release, and activating Hsp70-mediated refolding. .
