Product Specifications

Immunogen

A synthetic peptide, aa41-54 (GAAPAPGIFSSQPG-Cys) of human Bcl-2 protein. (Uniprot: P10415 )

Reactivity Notes

Does not react with Mouse or Rat.

Localization

Outer mitochondrial membranes and endoplasmic reticulum as well as nuclear membranes.

Specificity

This antibody recognizes a protein of 25-26kDa, identified as the Bcl-2 alpha oncoprotein. It shows no cross-reaction with Bcl-x or Bax protein. Expression of Bcl-2 alpha oncoprotein inhibits the programmed cell death (apoptosis). In most follicular lymphomas, neoplastic germinal centers express high levels of Bcl-2 alpha protein, whereas the normal or hyperplastic germinal centers are negative. Consequently, this antibody is valuable when distinguishing between reactive and neoplastic follicular proliferation in lymph node biopsies. It may also be used in distinguishing between those follicular lymphomas that express Bcl-2 protein and the small number in which the neoplastic cells are Bcl-2 negative.

Background: Bcl-2

The Bcl-2 family of proteins regulate apoptosis by controlling mitochondrial permeability and release of cytochrome c. Bcl-2 is an anti-apoptotic protein that resides in the outer mitochondrial wall and inhibits release of cytochrome c (1). Over-expression of Bcl-2 has been shown to promote cell survival by suppressing apoptosis. It has been documented that bcl-2 becomes deregulated in tumor cells as a result of translocation into the immunoglobulin heavy-chain locus and is therefore activated in B cell malignancies (2). It has also been shown that post-translational modification of Bcl-2, phosphorylation at serine 70, may be required to render its full and/or enhanced anti-apoptotic effect (3, 4).
