Anti-Cytochrome c mAb (Cat.# G7421) is a monoclonal IgG antibody (clone 6H2.B4) against
cytochrome c [Goshorn, S.C., Retzel, E. and Jemmerson, R. (1991) J. Biol. Chem. 266,
2134–42.], an electron carrier protein identified as essential to the mitochondrial
respiratory process. This protein was recently shown to be an important molecule in the
apoptosis pathway. Cytochrome c is translocated from the mitochondria to the cytoplasm
where it associates with other apoptosis-inducing proteins to activate caspase-9. The main
application of the antibody is for immunofluorescence studies.
