FLIP, CT (FLICE Inhibitory Protein) (MaxLight 405)

Recognizes the 55kD FLIPL protein, a FLICE inhibitory protein. FLIP was cloned independently in a number of laboratories and is also known as Casper, I-FLICE, FLAME-1, CASH and CLARP. FLIP has two death effector domains (DEDs) and a caspase-like domain. It interacts with FADD and caspase-8 and-10, potently inhibiting apoptosis by all known death receptors. FLIP exists in a short form (FLIPS) and a long form (FLIPL). Only FLIPL is recognized by this antibody.
