| WB, IHC, FC, E |
---|---|
Primary Accession | O15519 |
Reactivity | Human, Mouse |
Host | Mouse |
Clonality | Monoclonal |
Clone Names | 7A3D12 |
Isotype | IgG1 |
Calculated MW | 55kDa |
Description | The protein encoded by this gene is a regulator of apoptosis and is structurally similar to caspase-8. However, the encoded protein lacks caspase activity and appears to be itself cleaved into two peptides by caspase-8. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene, and partial evidence for several more variants exists. |
Immunogen | Purified recombinant fragment of human CFLAR (AA: 100-251) expressed in E. Coli. |
Formulation | Purified antibody in PBS with 0.05% sodium azide |
Gene ID | 8837 |

Dilution | E~~1/10000 WB~~1/500 - 1/2000 FC~~1/200 - 1/400 IHC~~1/200 - 1/1000 |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 6 months. For long term storage store at -20°C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |

Synonyms | CASH, CASP8AP1, CLARP, MRIT |
Function | Apoptosis regulator protein which may function as a crucial link between cell survival and cell death pathways in mammalian cells. Acts as an inhibitor of TNFRSF6 mediated apoptosis. A proteolytic fragment (p43) is likely retained in the death-inducing signaling complex (DISC) thereby blocking further recruitment and processing of caspase-8 at the complex. Full length and shorter isoforms have been shown either to induce apoptosis or to reduce TNFRSF-triggered apoptosis. Lacks enzymatic (caspase) activity. |
Tissue Location | Widely expressed. Higher expression in skeletal muscle, pancreas, heart, kidney, placenta, and peripheral blood leukocytes. Also detected in diverse cell lines. Isoform 8 is predominantly expressed in testis and skeletal muscle |
