Human Phospho-P53 (S18) mAb

Specificity: Human phospho-P53 (S18)

Source: Rabbit

IgG Type: rabbit IgG

Background: Acts as a tumor suppressor in many tumor types; induces growth arrest or apoptosis depending on the physiological circumstances and cell type. Involved cell cycle regulation as a trans-activator that acts to negatively regulate cell division by controlling a set of genes required for this process. One of the activated genes is an inhibitor of cyclin-dependent kinases. Apoptosis induction seems to be mediated either by stimulation of BAX and FAS antigen expression, or by repression of Bcl-2 expression.

Other Name: Cellular tumor antigen p53
