Target

  • Function
    Promotes cell death. Successfully competes for the binding to Bcl-X(L), Bcl-2 and Bcl-W, thereby affecting the level of heterodimerization of these proteins with BAX. Can reverse the death repressor activity of Bcl-X(L), but not that of Bcl-2 (By similarity). Appears to act as a link between growth factor receptor signaling and the apoptotic pathways.
  • Tissue specificity
    Expressed in a wide variety of tissues.
  • Sequence similarities
    Belongs to the Bcl-2 family.
  • Domain
    Intact BH3 motif is required by BIK, BID, BAK, BAD and BAX for their pro-apoptotic activity and for their interaction with anti-apoptotic members of the Bcl-2 family.
  • Post-translational
    modifications
    Phosphorylated on one or more of Ser-75, Ser-99, Ser-118 and Ser-134 in response to survival stimuli, which blocks its pro-apoptotic activity. Phosphorylation on Ser-99 or Ser-75 promotes heterodimerization with 14-3-3 proteins. This interaction then facilitates the phosphorylation at Ser-118, a site within the BH3 motif, leading to the release of Bcl-X(L) and the promotion of cell survival. Ser-99 is the major site of AKT/PKB phosphorylation, Ser-118 the major site of protein kinase A (CAPK) phosphorylation. Ser-75 is phosphorylated by AKT/PKB, protein kinase A and PIM2.
  • Cellular localization
    Mitochondrion outer membrane. Cytoplasm. Upon phosphorylation, locates to the cytoplasm.

    Lane 1: Wild-type HAP1 whole cell lysate (20 µg)
    Lane 2: BAD knockout HAP1 whole cell lysate (20 µg)
    Lane 3: HeLa whole cell lysate (20 µg)
    Lane 4: MCF7 whole cell lysate (20 µg)

    Lanes 1 - 4: Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab32445 observed at 23 kDa. Red - loading control, ab9484, observed at 37 kDa.

    ab32445 was shown to specifically recognise BAD in wild-type HAP1 cells along with additional cross reactive bands. No band was observed when BAD knockout cells were examined. Wild-type and BAD knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. Ab32445 and ab9484 (Mouse anti-GAPDH loading control) were incubated overnight at 4°C at 1/2000 dilution and 1/20,000 dilution respectively. Blots were developed with Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preabsorbed ab216773 and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preabsorbed ab216776 secondary antibodies at 1/20,000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature before imaging.

    Overlay histogram showing MCF-7 cells stained with ab32445 (red line). The cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (10 min) and then permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween for 20 min. The cells were then incubated in 1x PBS / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine to block non-specific protein-protein interactions followed by the antibody (ab32445, 1/20 dilution) for 30 min at 22°C. The secondary antibody used was DyLight® 488 goat anti-rabbit IgG (H+L) (ab96899) at 1/500 dilution for 30 min at 22°C. Isotype control antibody (black line) was rabbit monoclonal IgG (1µg/1x106 cells) used under the same conditions. Acquisition of >5,000 events was performed. This antibody gave a decreased signal in MCF-7 cells fixed with methanol (5 min)/permeabilized in 0.1% PBS-Tween used under the same conditions.
