BIRC5 Antibody BIRC5/9073 / Survivin Protein Antibody recognizes BIRC5, the gene product commonly known as survivin. BIRC5 belongs to the inhibitor of apoptosis protein (IAP) family and has important functions in the regulation of both programmed cell death and mitosis. Survivin contains a single baculoviral IAP repeat domain and differs structurally from several other IAP family proteins by lacking a C-terminal RING finger domain.
Survivin is an integral component of the chromosomal passenger complex together with Aurora B kinase, INCENP, and borealin/CDCA8. This complex coordinates multiple events during mitosis, including chromosome alignment and segregation, correction of improper kinetochore-microtubule attachments, spindle checkpoint activity, and cytokinesis. Through these functions, BIRC5 contributes to accurate cell division and is closely associated with proliferative activity.
BIRC5 is also involved in mechanisms that promote cell survival and resistance to apoptosis. Survivin can interact with components of apoptotic regulatory pathways, helping cells resist programmed cell death under certain conditions. Its functions are influenced by cell-cycle stage, subcellular localization, and interactions with other regulatory proteins, linking survivin activity to the balance between proliferation and cell death.
Expression of survivin is generally limited in many differentiated adult tissues but is increased during development and in numerous malignancies. Elevated BIRC5 expression has been investigated in solid tumors and hematologic cancers and has been associated with tumor-cell proliferation, apoptosis resistance, disease progression, and therapeutic response. These characteristics have established Survivin Protein as an important research target in cancer biology and biomarker studies.
Alternative splicing of BIRC5 generates multiple survivin isoforms, including survivin-2B and survivin-deltaEx3. Differences among these isoforms have been investigated in relation to protein localization, apoptosis regulation, and tumor biology, adding another level of complexity to BIRC5 function.
NSJ Bioreagents offers clone BIRC5/9073 as a mouse monoclonal reagent for investigating survivin biology. A BIRC5 Antibody can support research into apoptosis regulation, mitotic control, cellular proliferation, cancer biology, and the molecular functions of Survivin Protein.
For a recombinant monoclonal option, see our Survivin Antibody BIRC5/8936R / Apoptosis Inhibitor Survivin Antibody page.
Optimal dilution of the BIRC5 Antibody BIRC5/9073 / Survivin Protein Antibody should be determined by the researcher.
A portion of amino acids 1-142 from human BIRC5 protein was used as the immunogen for the BIRC5 Antibody BIRC5/9073.
Aliquot the BIRC5 Antibody BIRC5/9073 and store frozen at -20oC or colder. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
