BD Ac-DEVD-CHO Inhibitor
To identify and quantify Caspase-3 activity in apoptotic cells, and to study events downstream of Caspase-3 activation
Brand: BD 556465
Additional Details : Weight : 0.01000kg
Description
Members of ICE/CED-3 cysteine protease family have key roles in inflammation and mammalian apoptosis. The ICE family member Caspase-3 (also known as CPP32, Yama, apopain) is activated early in apoptosis and appears to be involved in proteolysis of several important molecules, including poly (ADP ribose) polymerase (PARP)
- Synthetic tetrapeptide inhibitor for Caspase-3
- Used in protease assays
- Cleaves PARP from 116kD to 85kD residual fragment
- Cleavage site in PARP is C-terminal to Asp-216
- Upstream sequence of cleavage site, DEVD (Asp-Glu-Val-Asp), is utilized as basis for highly specific Caspase-3 substrate, Ac-DEVD-AMC and Caspase-3 inhibitor,Ac-DEVD-CHO
- Storage Buffer: Lyophilized powder
- Format: Purified
