products short name :
[BPI]
products name syn :
[Bactericidal permeability-increasing protein; BPI; CAP 57; BPI]
other names :
[Bactericidal permeability-increasing protein; Bactericidal permeability-increasing protein; bactericidal permeability-increasing protein; bactericidal/permeability-increasing protein; CAP 57]
products gene name :
[BPI]
other gene names :
[BPI; BPI; rBPI; BPIFD1; BPI]
uniprot entry name :
BPI_HUMAN
specificity :
The synthetic peptide sequence used to generate the antibody was selected from the Center region of human BPI. A 10 to 100 fold molar excess to antibody is recommended. Precise conditions should be optimized for a particular assay.
form :
Synthetic peptide was lyophilized with 100% acetonitrile and is supplied as a powder. Reconstitute with 0.1 ml DI water for a final concentration of 1 mg/ml.
storage stability :
Maintain refrigerated at 2-8 degree C for up to 6 months. For long term storage store at -20 degree C.
other info1 :
Cellular Location: Secreted. Cytoplasmic granule membrane. Note: Membrane-associated in polymorphonuclear Leukocytes (PMN) granules. Function: The cytotoxic action of BPI is limited to many species of Gram-negative bacteria; this specificity may be explained by a strong affinity of the very basic N-terminal half for the negatively charged lipopolysaccharides that are unique to the Gram-negative bacterial outer envelope. Has antibacterial activity against the Gram-nagative bacterium P.aeruginosa, this activity is inhibited by LPS from P.aeruginosa.
other info2 :
Tissue Location: Restricted to cells of the myeloid series.
products description :
BPI encodes a lipopolysaccaride binding protein. It is associated with human neutrophil granules and has a bactericidal activity on gram-negative organisms.
ncbi pathways :
Immune System Pathway (1269170); Innate Immune System Pathway (1269203); Toll Like Receptor 4 (TLR4) Cascade Pathway (1269234); Toll-Like Receptors Cascades Pathway (1269204)
ncbi summary :
This gene encodes a lipopolysaccharide binding protein. It is associated with human neutrophil granules and has antimicrobial activity against gram-negative organisms. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2014]
