B-Cell Lymphoma Extra Large Human Recombinant ( Bcl XL Human )

Bcl-XL Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing amino acids 1-210.The Bcl-XL is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Greater than 95.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE.

Bcl-XL is a transmembrane protein located in the mitochondrial membranes of cells that are long-lived and postmitotic, such as adult brain cells. It plays arole in the signal transduction pathway of the FAS-Ligand. Bcl-XL is an anti-apoptotic protein which is a member of the Bcl-2 family which are able to form heterodimers, and this is an significant event in the regulation of apoptosis. BCL-XL is involved in the survival of cancer cells. Bcl-xL is the leading monitor of apoptosis/active cell suicide. Bcl-xL has cell death repressor activity and therefore acts as a survival protein.
