General description

Bcl-X consists of two isoforms, Bcl-XL (long), a 241 aa protein, and Bcl-XS (short), a 178 aa protein lacking a 63-aa domain that is well conserved among members of the Bcl-2 family. Bcl-XL represses cell death, while Bcl-XS favors cell death.Bcl-X has two isoforms, Bcl-XL (long) a 241 amino acid protein and Bcl-XS (short) a 178 amino acid protein lacking a 63 amino acid domain that is well conserved among members of the Bcl-2 family. Bcl-XL represses cell death, while Bcl-XS favors cell death.

Immunogen

Synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acids 35-50 (TEAPEETEAERETPSA) of mouse Bcl-XL protein. This sequence is conserved at 15 of 16 residues in rat Bcl-XL.
