Anti-ALIX antibody produced in rabbit

The gene PDCD6IP (programmed cell death 6 interacting protein), also known as ALIX (apoptosis-linked gene 2-interacting protein X), is mapped to human chromosome 3p22.1 The protein has a crescent-shaped Bro1 domain, V-shaped V domain and a proline-rich region.

peptide corresponding to an internal region of human ALIX/ PDCD6IP, conjugated to KLH. The corresponding sequence is identical in monkey, bovine and dog and differs by 2 amino acids in mouse and rat.

Anti-ALIX antibody produced in rabbit has been used in immunoprecipitation and immunoblotting.

ALIX (Apoptosis-linked gene 2 (ALG-2)-interacting protein X binds to endophilins, proteins that regulate membrane shape during endocytosis. Over-expression of ALIX and endophilins results in cytoplasmic vacuolization, which may be partly responsible for the protection against cell death.

PDCD6IP (programmed cell death 6 interacting protein) interacts with PDCD6, a protein involved in apoptosis. It also participates in intraluminal endosomal vesicle biogenesis, viral budding and cytokinetic abscission. PDCD6IP is a part of the ESCRT (endosomal sorting complexes required for transport) machinery.
