The application notes include recommended starting dilutions; optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

  • Blocking

     

Application notes

The peptide is used for blocking the antibody activity of anti-Livin (cat. no ab5393). It usually blocks the antibody activity completely in Western blot by incubating the peptide with equal volume of antibody for 30 min at 37°C.

Protein info

Function

Protects against apoptosis induced by TNF or by chemical agents such as adriamycin, etoposide or staurosporine. Suppression of apoptosis is mediated by activation of MAPK8/JNK1, and possibly also of MAPK9/JNK2. This activation depends on TAB1 and NR2C2/TAK1. In vitro, inhibits caspase-3 and proteolytic activation of pro-caspase-9. Isoform 1 blocks staurosporine-induced apoptosis. Isoform 2 blocks etoposide-induced apoptosis.

Tissue specificity

Isoform 1 and isoform 2 are expressed at very low levels or not detectable in most adult tissues. Detected in adult heart, placenta, lung, lymph node, spleen and ovary, and in several carcinoma cell lines. Isoform 2 is detected in fetal kidney, heart and spleen, and at lower levels in adult brain, skeletal muscle and peripheral blood leukocytes.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the IAP family.
Contains 1 BIR repeat.
Contains 1 RING-type zinc finger.

Cellular localization

Nucleus. Cytoplasm. Nuclear, and in a filamentous pattern throughout the cytoplasm.
