General notes
BH3 interacting domain death agonist (BID) is a pro-apoptotic member of the Bcl 2 family. BID interacts with both Bcl 2 and Bax through its BH3 domain. It usually exists in an inactive form in the cytosolic fraction of living cells and becomes cleaved and activated by caspase 8 in response to TNF alpha or Fas ligand. Once BID is cleaved, the C-terminal 15 kDa fragment of BID (p15) translocates onto mitochondria and is sufficient to trigger cytochrome c release, resulting in cell apoptosis. BID serves as a direct molecular link between caspase 8 activation and mitochondrial death machinery.

Mouse L929 cells were treated with 5
µ g/mL actinomycin plus 2.5 ng/mL, 5 ng/mL and 10 ng/mL mouse TNF alpha for 5 hours (Lane 3, 4 and 5). Untreated L929 cells (Lane 1) and cells treated with actinomycin alone (Lane 2) were used as controls. Proteins were resolved from the cells by SDS-PAGE. The proteins were transferred to PVDF membranes. The membranes were incubated with the anti-mouse full length BID antibody (left panel) and ab10640 (right panel) at 1µ g/mL. The signal was detected using a goat F(ab’)2 anti-rabbit IgG alkaline phosphatase antibody at a 1/5000 dilution and the membrane was incubated with CDP-substrate followed by chemiluminescence. The data show that ab10640 only recognizes the cleaved mouse BID and not full length (Right panel). The full length BID was revealed using an anti-mouse full length BID antibody (Left panel). Mouse L929 cells were treated with 5 µg/mL actinomycin plus 2.5 ng/mL, 5 ng/mL and 10
