BID Protein, Mouse (His-GST)

BID Protein, a pro-apoptotic member of the Bcl-2 family, is initially discovered through binding to both pro-apoptotic Bax and anti-apoptotic Bcl-2. BID is activated in the BCL-2-regulated or mitochondrial apoptosis pathway and acts as a switch between the extrinsic and intrinsic cell death pathways. BID is susceptible to proteolytic cleavage by caspases, calpains, Granzyme B and cathepsins. BID Protein, Mouse (His-GST) is the recombinant mouse-derived BID protein, expressed by E. coli , with N-His, N-GST labeled tag.

BH3-interacting domain death agonist (BID), a pro-apoptotic member of the Bcl-2 family, is initially discovered through binding to both pro-apoptotic Bax and anti-apoptotic Bcl-2. BID is activated in the BCL-2-regulated or mitochondrial apoptosis pathway and acts as a switch between the extrinsic and intrinsic cell death pathways. During apoptosis, BID can be cleaved not only by caspase-8 during death receptor apoptotic signaling, but also by other caspases, granzyme B, calpains and cathepsins. Protease-cleaved BID migrates to mitochondria where it induces permeabilization of the outer mitochondrial membrane that is dependent on the pro-apoptotic proteins Bax and/or Bak, and thus BID acts as a sentinel for protease-mediated death signals^[1][2].

Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. Immobilized mouse BID at 10 μg/mL (100 μL/well) can bind biotinylated human BCL2L1. The ED₅₀ for this effect is 40.75 ng/mL.

Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of 20 mM PB, 150 mM NaCl, pH 7.4.

<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.

It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH₂O. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose).

Stored at -20°C for 2 years from date of receipt. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.

Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.
