Product Overview
Clone FOA-3 is a rabbit monoclonal antibody that recognizes cytochrome c (gene CYCS) in human, mouse and rat samples and is validated for Western blot and IHC. The predicted molecular weight is 11.7 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 12 kDa.
Cytochrome c (CYCS) is a small heme protein in the mitochondrial intermembrane space that shuttles electrons from complex III to complex IV in the respiratory chain. When the outer mitochondrial membrane is permeabilized during apoptosis, it is released into the cytosol, binds APAF1 and triggers the apoptosome and caspase-9 activation, so it is a classic marker of intrinsic apoptosis.

Validated Applications
| Western blot | 1:500–1:2000 |
|---|---|
| Immunohistochemistry | 1:50–1:200 |
Samples with confirmed staining (IHC): human colonic cancer tissue.
Recommended antigen retrieval: heat-mediated, in TE buffer (pH 9.0); citrate buffer (pH 6.0) can be used instead.
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide based on the sequence of human cytochrome C.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human, mouse and rat. UniProt places cytochrome c in the mitochondrion intermembrane space. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.

Customization & Add-ons: Can’t find the antibody you need—or require a custom format for your assay? We can help you source the best match or support custom antibody solutions for diverse research needs, including species and isotype selection, conjugations and labeling (e.g., HRP/AP, biotin, fluorophores), purification grade options (Protein A/G, affinity purified), formulation preferences (buffer selection, carrier-free, glycerol-free), custom concentrations and aliquoting, low-endotoxin options for cell-based work, and application-focused QC/validation support (project dependent).
