Background Information

1. What is Bcl-2?

Bcl-2 (B-cell lymphoma 2) is an outer mitochondrial membrane protein that via heterodimerization with BAX proteins controls apoptosis. Abnormalities of Bcl-2 activity can lead to cancer, autoimmune diseases, and schizophrenia.

2. FAQs for Bcl-2

 a. How to measure Bcl-2 and Bax apoptotic markers by western blotting

Generally, Bcl-2 protein is considered to have anti-apoptotic activity, while Bax has apoptotic activity. Comparing the ratio between Bcl-2 and Bax protein levels in different samples or cells subjected to treatments can reflect the apoptotic state of the cells. Expression of Bax can vary between cell lines and it is important to compare it to Bcl-2 levels.

b. What band size should I expect in western blotting for Bcl-2?

The molecular weight of Bcl-2 is 26 kDa.

Morgan (Verified Customer) (10-26-2021)

This product worked really well. I attached photos to show how clean the blot came out when used on ovarian cancer cells (OV90s). I used 1:500 for the first use, but I could definitely use less antibody next time.

Staining of B cells from mice bone marrow after cytoplasmic permezbiliation. The cells were first fixed and permeabilized with intracellular fix and perm set from ebioscience and then stained with 0,05 µl/ million cells with Bcl2 antibody (12789-1-AP) during 50min After, a seconde staining was performed with 0,1µl/million cells of F(ab')2-Donkey anti-Rabbit IgG (H+L), PE, Secondary Antibody from invitrogen. In blue secondary antibody only and in red primary (12789-1-AP) +secondary antibody.
