The BAG1 gene encodes three different isoforms; a predominantly cytosolic form of ~36kD (BAG1S), a ~46kD cytosolic and nuclear form (BAG1M), and a predominantly nuclear form of ~50kD (BAG1L).

BAG1 displays potent neuroprotective activity in vivo against stroke, and could be used for reducing brain injury during cerebral ischemia and neurodegenerative diseases. BAG1 may also promote chemoresistance, growth factor independence, and anchorage independent cell growth in tumor cells.
Applications
Suitable for use in Western Blot. Other applications not tested.
Recommended Dilution
Western Blot: 1-2ug/ml, detects a band of ~35kD in PC-3 cell lysate. Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
Storage and Stability
May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for 12 months after receipt. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide corresponding to 14aa near the N-terminus of human BAG1.
Form
Supplied as a liquid, 0.02% sodium azide.
Purity
Purified by affinity chromatography.
Specificity
Recognizes human BAG1, NT. Species Crossreactivity: mouse.
