Apoptosis is related to many diseases and development.
Mitochondrial proteins, such as cytochrome c, Apaf-1, and AIF play important role in apoptosis.
A novel mitochondrial septin-like protein was identified recently and designated ARTS for apoptosis related protein in TGF-b signaling pathway (1).
ARTS that is encoded by the human septin H5/PNUTL2/CDCrel2b gene (1-4) is located to mitochondria and translocates to the nucleus when apoptosis occurs.
ARTS is expressed in many tissues.
It enhances cell death induced by TGF-b and, to a lesser extent, by other apoptotic agents, such as TNF-a and Fas ligand.
Applications: Suitable for use in ELISA and Western Blot.
Other applications not tested.
Recommended Dilution: Western Blot: 0.5-2ug/ml; Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
Positive Control: Human lung, kidney and spleen tissue lysates
Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only.
For long-term storage and to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, aliquot and add glycerol (40-50%).
Freeze at -20°C.
Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months at -20°C.
For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
