Cytochrome c Antibody, anti-human/mouse/rat, FITC, REAfinity™

01MT05742

Clone REA702 recognizes the human, mouse, and rat cytochrome c, a 15 kDa hemeprotein located in the intermembrane of the mitochondrion. Cytochromes are involved in cell respiration, photosynthesis, and other biochemical reactions. Cytochrome c plays also a role in apoptosis, by release to cytoplasma and binding Apaf-1 which activates procaspase 9. Cytochrome c is found in plants, animals, and many unicellular organisms and catalyzes the electron transfer from reduced cytochrome c to oxygen. Additional information: Clone REA702 displays negligible binding to Fc receptors.
