It is the responsibility of our customers to check the necessity of application of REACH Authorisation, and any other relevant authorisations, for their intended uses.

Lysate preparation: Our lysates are made using RIPA buffer to which we add a protease inhibitor cocktail and phosphatase inhibitor cocktail (ratio: 300:100:10). This means that the protein of interest is denatured. If you require a native form of the protein please use the live cell version. Please refer to our lysis protocol for further details on how our lysates are prepared.

User storage instructions: Lyophilizate may be stored at 4°C. After reconstitution, store at -20°C for short-term storage or -80°C for long-term storage.

Supplementary information

This supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.

The Bak protein also known as Bcl-2 homologous antagonist killer plays a mechanical role in the mitochondrial apoptosis pathway. It often functions as a pro-apoptotic member of the Bcl-2 protein family. Bak is expressed widely in the body being present in tissues such as the brain and heart. The molecular weight of Bak is approximately 23 kilodaltons. Bak interacts with other mitochondrial proteins to trigger cell death processes.
Biological function summary

Bak engages in promoting apoptosis by disrupting the mitochondrial outer membrane potential. It is part of the Bcl-2 family complex which balances cell survival and cell death. Bak collaborates with Bax protein to form pores in the mitochondrial membrane releasing cytochrome c and other apoptotic factors. This process initiates the cascade of caspases leading to programmed cell death.

Pathways

Bak is a critical component of the intrinsic apoptotic pathway. It directly interacts with pro-apoptotic proteins like Bax and anti-apoptotic proteins such as Bcl-2 and Bcl-xL. Bak's action in the apoptotic pathway involves a delicate balance between survival and death signals affecting cellular homeostasis. In addition Bak's interaction with the p53 pathway emphasizes its role in response to DNA damage ensuring damaged cells do not proliferate uncontrollably.

Malfunction or dysregulation of Bak can lead to cancer and neurodegenerative disorders. In cancer reduced Bak activity may allow cells to evade apoptosis promoting tumor survival and growth. Conversely in diseases like Parkinson's excessive Bak activity may result in enhanced neuronal apoptosis. Bak's interaction with proteins such as Bcl-2 also makes it a potential target for therapies aimed at restoring apoptotic balance in affected cells.
