In zebrafish (Danio rerio), Bcl2a functions as an anti-apoptotic protein, playing a key role in promoting cell survival during development and in response to cellular stress.\u003cp\u003eBcl2a acts by inhibiting the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway, primarily through binding and neutralizing pro-apoptotic proteins such as Bax and Bak. This prevents the release of cytochrome c and the subsequent activation of caspases. Zebrafish bcl2a is expressed in various tissues during embryogenesis, including the developing brain, spinal cord, and hematopoietic tissues, where controlled regulation of cell death is essential for proper morphogenesis and tissue homeostasis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDue to its conserved function with mammalian BCL2, zebrafish Bcl2a is widely used in studies of cell survival signaling, developmental apoptosis, and disease models involving cancer, neurodegeneration, and immune cell regulation. It also serves as a valuable model for investigating the molecular mechanisms of apoptosis and the effects of pro- and anti-apoptotic compounds in vivo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch2\u003eResearch relevance and current trends\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnecting protein-level changes to phenotype using orthogonal readouts (genetic perturbation, transcriptomics, imaging).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConsidering isoforms and post-translational regulation when interpreting protein-level changes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComparing results across species and model systems with matched controls.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon research applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWestern blotting:\u003c\/strong\u003e compare relative abundance and activation-state changes across conditions.\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eInterpret changes in signal alongside appropriate controls and, when relevant, in parallel with total-protein or pathway readouts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eNotes for experimental interpretation\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSignal can reflect expression level, isoform composition, and post-translational state; interpret results in the context of your model system and stimuli.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpecies differences and sample matrices can influence epitope recognition; prioritize matched controls and orthogonal confirmation when feasible.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAntibody notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Polyclonal antibodies recognize multiple epitopes, which can broaden the epitope footprint and may increase sensitivity in some contexts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c!-- Sources (internal): - UniProt search — UniProt — https:\/\/www.uniprot.org\/uniprotkb?query=BCL2A - NCBI Gene search — NCBI — https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/gene\/?term=BCL2A - Ensembl search — Ensembl — https:\/\/www.ensembl.org\/Multi\/Search\/Results?q=BCL2A - Human Protein Atlas search — HPA — https:\/\/www.proteinatlas.org\/search\/BCL2A - PubMed (review) — NLM — https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/?term=BCL2A+review --\u003e","brand":"NSJ Bioreagents","offers":[{"title":"0.5mg\/ml if reconstituted with 0.2ml sterile DI water \/ 100 ug","offer_id":53047327785325,"sku":"RZ1206","price":539.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7424\/7277\/files\/get_image_dacc6658-abd0-4621-bc1a-9fa084cecdea.jpg?v=1772019455","url":"https:\/\/www.ebiohippo.com\/products\/zebrafish-bcl2a-antibody-bcl-2-bha17136401","provider":"BioHippo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
