AHP2036 specifically recognises an epitope within the C-terminal (CT) region of human VDAC2 (voltage-dependent anion-selective channel protein 2), a mammalian mitochondrial outer-membrane protein, and member of the eukaryotic mitochondrial porin family, which allows for the passage/diffusion of small hydrophilic molecules.
VDAC2 interacts with hexokinases, and has been shown to interact specifically with the inactive conformer of the proapoptotic protein BAK, thereby providing a link between mitochondrial physiology and the core apoptotic pathway.

Where this product has not been tested for use in a particular technique this does not necessarily exclude its use in such procedures. Suggested working dilutions are given as a guide only. It is recommended that the user titrates the product for use in their own system using appropriate negative/positive controls.
Western Blotting
AHP2036 detects a band of approximately 30kDa in human brain and testis cell lysates.
Storage
Store at +4oC or at -20oC if preferred.
Storage in frost-free freezers is not recommended.
This product should be stored undiluted. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing as this may denature the antibody. Should this product contain a precipitate we recommend microcentrifugation before use.
Shelf Life
18 months from date of despatch.
Antiserum Preparation
Antiserum to human VDAC2 (CT) was raised by repeated immunisation of goats with highly purified antigen. Purified IgG was prepared by affinity chromatography.
