Toso, also known as Fas Apoptotic Inhibitory Molecule 3 (FAIM3). Toso is expressed by lymphoid and hematopoietic cells and is up-regulated by T-cell activation. Toso expressing cells have increased resistance to Fas-, FADD-, and TNFalpha-induced apoptosis. Toso is membrane bound, and is thought to directly bind to FADD, disrupting DISC formation and thus inhibiting caspase-8 activation. Toso is a potential proto-oncogene, and could be a therapeutic target for use in the treatment of autoimmune diseases. Despite its predicted molecular weight, Toso often migrates at 60kD in SDS PAGE. Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Western Blot: 1-2ug/ml detects a band of ~43kD in human lung tissue lysate. Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4 degrees C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20 degrees C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
