Scythe protein (also known as Bat3 and HLA-B-associated transcript 3) is an apoptotic regulator that is highly conserved in eukaryotes and contains a ubiquitin-like domain near its N-terminus. Scythe binds Reaper, a potent apoptotic inducer. Scythe and Reaper are thought to signal apoptosis, in part through regulating the folding and and activity of apoptotic signaling molecules. Scythe regulates apoptosis-inducing factor stability during endoplasmic reticulum stress-induced apoptosis. Scythe interacts with transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) receptors and enhances TGF-beta1-induced type I collagen expression in mesangial cells. Scythe and SET1A form a complex with CTCFL/BORIS to modulate H3K4 histone dimethylation and gene expression. HLA-B-associated transcript 3 (Bat3/Scythe) is essential for p300-mediated acetylation of p53. Bat3 is identified as a critical regulator of Hsp70-2 in spermatogenesis, thereby providing a possible molecular target in idiopathic male infertility. The human Scythe/BAT3 ortholog in rodents is predominantly and developmentally expressed in testis.

Store vial at -20° C or below prior to opening. This vial contains a relatively low volume of reagent (25 µL). To minimize loss of volume dilute 1:10 by adding 225 µL of the buffer stated above directly to the vial. Recap, mix thoroughly and briefly centrifuge to collect the volume at the bottom of the vial. Use this intermediate dilution when calculating final dilutions as recommended below. Store the vial at -20°C or below after dilution. Avoid cycles of freezing and thawing.
