ICC/IF image of ab52182 stained HeLa cells. The cells were 4% PFA fixed (10 min) and then incubated in 1%BSA / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h to permeabilise the cells and block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody (ab52182, 1µg/ml) overnight at +4°C. The secondary antibody (green) was Alexa Fluor® 488 goat anti-rabbit IgG (H+L) used at a 1/1000 dilution for 1h. Alexa Fluor® 594 WGA was used to label plasma membranes (red) at a 1/200 dilution for 1h. DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue) at a concentration of 1.43µM.

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Anti-Bik antibody (AB52182)
ab52182 staining Bik in human Jurkat cells by Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence. The cells were fixed in paraformaldehyde, permeabilised in 0.5% Triton X and then blocked using 3% serum for 3 hours at 23°C. Samples were then incubated with primary antibody at 1/100 for 16 hours at 23°C. The secondary antibody used was a goat anti-rabbit IgG conjugated to Alexa Fluor® 647 (pink) used at a 1/1000 dilution.

Biological function summary
Within cellular apoptotic pathways Bik acts as a regulator of programmed cell death. It becomes part of a greater complex involved in mitochondrial signaling to initiate apoptosis. Once it binds to anti-apoptotic proteins Bik releases cytochrome c from the mitochondria triggering caspase activation. This liberation results in the execution of the apoptotic process fundamental to many cellular systems including development and immune response.
Pathways
Bik plays a critical role in the intrinsic (mitochondrial) apoptotic pathway. Bik displays connections with several important anti-apoptotic proteins such as Bcl-2 and Bcl-xL. Through its function Bik is engaged in the regulation of cell survival and death impacting processes like tissue homeostasis and response to cellular stress. Other proteins such as Bax and Bak also align with Bik's pathway by promoting apoptosis once liberated from inhibition.
