A synthetic peptide for use as a blocking control in assays to test for specificity of BAG5 antibody, Alternative Names: BAG5 control peptide, BAG5 antibody Blocking Peptide, Anti-BAG5 Blocking Peptide, BCL2-associated athanogene 5 Blocking Peptide, BAG-5 Blocking Peptide, BAG5, BAG-5, BAG 5, BAG-5 Blocking Peptide, BAG 5 Blocking Peptide
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the BAG1-related protein family. BAG1 is an anti-apoptotic protein that functions through interactions with a variety of cell apoptosis and growth related proteins including BCL-2, Raf-protein kinase, steroid hormone receptors, growth factor receptors and members of the heat shock protein 70 kDa family. This protein contains a BAG domain near the C-terminus, which could bind and inhibit the chaperone activity of Hsc70/Hsp70. Three transcript variants encoding two different isoforms have been found for this gene.
