Description: Bid, BH3 interacting domain death agonist, is a pro-apoptotic member of the Bcl-2 family of proteins that regulate apotosis. Bid is localized to the cytosol in an inactive precursor form. Upon caspase-8 binding in the Fas signaling pathway, Bid is cleaved and the active Bid fragment translocates to mitochondria and induces cytochrome c release and the resulting apoptotic cascade (1-3). Bid contains a BH3 domain which allows it to dimerize with and counter the death repressor effects of Bcl-2. BID has also been shown to heterodimerize with Bcl-x and the death agonist Bax (4).

Specificity: A synthetic peptide corresponding to residues before the BH3 domain of human Bid was used as the immunogen. This antibody does not cross-react with other Bcl-2 family members.

WB: 1:1,000
IHC: 1:100
ICC: 1:100
Flow Cytometry: 1:50
