FK506-binding protein 38 (FKBP38),a member of the immunophilin family,has been implicated to play an important role in apoptosis through its involvement in the mechanism that targets Bcl-2 and Bcl-xL to the outer mitochondrial membrane (OMM). Suppression of endogenous FKBP38 by RNAi or transfection of a mutant FKBK38 missing the transmembrane domain necessary for mitochondrial insertion,resulted in the translocation of Bcl-2 and Bcl-xL from the OMM to the cytosol. It has also been suggested that FKBP38 may play a role in the cross-talk between the Bcl-2 and the Calcineurin/NF-AT apoptosis signaling pathways and in cell size regulation through interactions with tuberous sclerosis genes.
應用類型
Western blotting (0.5-4 ug/ml). However, the optimal concentrations should be determined individually. Blocking peptide (Cat.# 3666BP-50) is available separately. The antibody recognizes a ~40 kDa band in samples from human, mouse and rat origins. Reactivity to other species has not been tested.
