Other Names | Diablo homolog, mitochondrial, Direct IAP-binding protein with low pI, Second mitochondria-derived activator of caspase, Smac, DIABLO, SMAC |
Target/Specificity | This SMAC antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 211-239 amino acids from the C-terminal region of human SMAC. |
Dilution | WB~~1:1000 IHC-P~~1:50~100 FC~~1:10~50 |
Format | Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide. This antibody is prepared by Saturated Ammonium Sulfate (SAS) precipitation followed by dialysis against PBS. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 2 weeks. For long term storage store at -20°C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
Precautions | SMAC Antibody (C-term) is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
Name | DIABLO (HGNC:21528) |
---|---|
Function | Promotes apoptosis by activating caspases in the cytochrome c/Apaf-1/caspase-9 pathway. Acts by opposing the inhibitory activity of inhibitor of apoptosis proteins (IAP). Inhibits the activity of BIRC6/BRUCE by inhibiting its binding to caspases (PubMed:15200957, PubMed:36758104, PubMed:36758105, PubMed:36758106). |
Cellular Location | Mitochondrion. Cytoplasm, cytosol Note=Released into the cytosol in a PARL-dependent manner when cells undergo apoptosis. |
Tissue Location | Ubiquitously expressed with highest expression in testis. Expression is also high in heart, liver, kidney, spleen, prostate and ovary. Low in brain, lung, thymus and peripheral blood leukocytes. Isoform 3 is ubiquitously expressed |

Background
SMAC is an inhibitor of apoptosis protein (IAP)-binding protein. This mitochondrial protein enters the cytosol when cells undergo apoptosis, and it moderates the caspase inhibition of IAPs.
