Fas and tumor necrosis factor receptor 1 (TNFR1) are two prototype members in the death receptor family. A novel protein that associates with the intracellular domains of Fas and TNFR1 was recently identified and designated F1Aalpha and FEM1beta (1,2). F1Aalpha/FEM1beta is the homologue of C. elegans sex determining protein FEM-1 (1,2). FEM-1/F1Aalpha is cleaved by CED-3 and caspase (3). FEM-1/F1Aalpha associates with CED-4 and its mammalian homologue Apaf-1 (3). Overexpression of F1Aalpha induces apoptosis. F1Aalpha is therefore a novel member of the death receptor associated protein that mediates apoptosis. F1Aalpha is expressed in a variety of human and mouse tissues (1,2) Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Western Blot: 0.5-1ug/ml, Mouse liver tissue lysate can be used as positive control and an approximately 70kD band can be detected. Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4 degrees C for short-term only. For long-term storage and to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, add sterile glycerol (40-50%), aliquot and store at -20 degrees C. Aliquots are stable for at least 3 months at -20 degrees C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
