| Product Description: | Rabbit Monoclonal anti-Active Caspase-3 (Y83-77) |
| Clone: | Y83-77 |
| Clonality: | Monoclonal |
| ListPrice: | 325 |
| Immunogen: | A synthetic peptide corresponding to residues following Ser29 of human Caspase 3 (N terminus of p17 subunit). |
| Specificity: | A synthetic peptide corresponding to residues following Ser29 of human caspase-3 (N-terminus of p17 subunit) was used as immunogen. This antibody only detects the active form of caspase-3 (p17 subunit). |
| Cross Reactivity: | Reacts in Human and Mouse. Does not react in Rat. Not tested in other species. |
| Packaging: | 0.1 ml Rabbit ascites. |
| Background: | Caspases are a family of cytosolic aspartate-specific cysteine proteases involved in the initiation and execution of apoptosis. Caspase-3 (apopain, SCA-1, Yama and CPP32) is a member of the apoptosis execution functional group of caspases, and is either partially or totally responsible for the proteolytic cleavage of many key proteins during apoptosis, such as poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) (1,2,3). Caspase-3 is a cytosolic protein found in cells as an inactive 35 kDa proenzyme. It is activated by proteolytic cleavage into two active subunits only when cells undergo apoptosis (3). |
