General description

Bcl2-associated athanogene 3 (BAG3), also known as CAIR-1 or Bis, belongs to a family of six evolutionarily conserved co-chaperone proteins that contain a characteristic C-terminal BAG domain. In most cell types, BAG3 is localized to the cytoplasm, where it regulates the heat shock protein 70 chaperone. BAG3 is activated in response to stressful stimuli, and plays a critical role in modulating multiple cellular processes, including apoptosis, autophagy, embryonic development, and actin rearrangement. Abnormal expression of BAG3 results cardiomyopathy dilated type 1HH.

Immunogen

KLH-conjugated linear peptide corresponding to human BAG3.
