Brief Description   An apoptosis related protein
Specific Description    Apoptosis is related to many diseases and development. Mitochondrial proteins, such as cytochrome c, Apaf-1, and AIF play important role in apoptosis. A novel mitochondrial septin-like protein was identified recently and designated ARTS for apoptosis related protein in TGF-b signaling pathway (1). ARTS that is encoded by the human septin H5/PNUTL2/CDCrel2b gene (1-4) is located to mitochondria and translocates to the nucleus when apoptosis occurs. ARTS is expressed in many tissues. It enhances cell death induced by TGF-b and, to a lesser extent, by other apoptotic agents, such as TNF-a and Fas ligand.
Storage   ARTS antibody can be stored at 4°C, stable for one year. As with all antibodies care should be taken to avoid repeated freeze thaw cycles. Antibodies should not be exposed to prolonged high temperatures.
