Survivin Antibody: Apoptosis, or programmed cell death, is related to many diseases, such as cancer. Apoptosis is triggered by a variety of stimuli including members in the TNF family and prevented by the inhibitor of apoptosis (IAP) proteins. IAP proteins form a conserved gene family that binds to and inhibits cell death proteases. A novel IAP protein was recently identified and designated survivin, apoptosis inhibitor 4 (API4), and TIAP. Survivin/TIAP interacted with the processed form of caspase-3 and inhibited its proteolytic activity. Survivin/TIAP is predominantly expressed in tissues of embryos, transformed cell lines, and many human cancers and lymphomas.

- Validation:
Independent Antibody Validation in Cell lines (Figure 2) shows similar Survivin expression profile in human cell lines detected by two independent anti-Survivin antibodies that recognize different epitopes, 2233 against N-terminus domain and 2235 against C-terminus domain. 
- Survivin proteins are detected in the most tested cell lines at different expression levels by the two independent antibodies. 
Recombinant Protein Test (Figure 6- 8): Anti-Survivin antibodies (2235) detected human Survivin recombinant protein directly or in sera from cancer patients.
- Isoforms: Human Survivin has 7 isoforms, including isoform 1 (142aa, 16kD), isoform 2 (165aa, 19kD), isoform 3 (137aa, 16kD), isoform 4 (120aa, 14kD), isoform 5 (117aa, 14kD), isoform 6 (78aa, 9kD) and isoform 7 (74aa, 8.5kD). Mouse Survivin has 3 isoforms, including isoform 1 (140aa, 16kD), isoform 2 (121aa, 14kD) and isoform 3 (40aa, 4.7kD). Rat Survivin has one isoform (142aa, 17kD). 2235 can detect human and possibly mouse and rat.
