More Information
Product Details
Synonyms	CD95; APO-1; TNFRSF6; Tumor Necrosis Factor Receptor Superfamily Member 6; Apoptosis-mediating Surface Antigen FAS
Product Type	Monoclonal Antibody
Properties
Clone	APO-1-1
Isotype	Mouse IgG1
Source/Host	Purified from concentrated hybridoma tissue culture supernatant.
Immunogen/Antigen	Recombinant human Fas.
Label/Conjugates	Preservative Free
Application	Flow Cytometry 1-2µg/ml Functional Application: Induces apoptosis upon cross-linking, but less efficient than clone APO-1-3. Immunohistochemistry: Frozen sections; not suitable for stainings on paraffin sections. Note: APO-1-1 (IgG1) is an isotype-switch variant of the original clone APO-1-3 (IgG3) (Prod. No. AG-20B-0062PF). Since undesired side reactions in immunohistochemistry are minimal for IgG1 antibodies, APO-1-1 is especially useful for immunohistology on cryostat sections and on cytospin preparations. For Western Blot and Functional Applications we recommend to use anti-Fas (human), mAb (APO-1-3) (Prod. No. AG-20B-0062PF).
Crossreactivity	Human
Specificity	Recognizes human Fas.
Purity	≥95% (SDS-PAGE)
Concentration	1 mg/ml.
Formulation	Liquid. In PBS.
Other Product Data	Uniprot: Fas (human)
Accession Number	P25445

Description

Fas (CD95) is a member of the death receptor (DR) family, a subfamily of the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily. The formation of the Fas death-inducing signaling complex (DISC) is the initial step of Fas signaling. Activation of procaspase-8 at the DISC leads to the induction of DR-mediated apoptosis. Stimulation of Fas has also been reported to trigger non-apoptotic pathways. It has been shown that membrane-bound FasL is essential for the cytotoxic activity, whereas soluble FasL appears to promote autoimmunity and tumorigenesis via induction of non-apoptotic pathways, in particular NF-κB.
