Immunogen
Epitope: large subunit & proform
Recombinant full-length human caspase-3 protein
Application
Anti-Caspase 3 Antibody, large subunit & proform, clone 4-1-18 detects level of Caspase 3 & has been published & validated for use in WB, IH(P).
Research Category
Apoptosis & Cancer
Metabolism
Research Sub Category
Caspases
Enzymes & Biochemistry
Western blot: 1:1000. The antibody will detect a band at 32 kDa corresponding to the inactive unprocessed form of caspase 3 as well as a 17-22 kDa band corresponding to the large subunit of active caspase 3.
Immunohistochemistry (frozen and paraffin): 1:500.
Optimal working dilutions must be determined by end user.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Recognizes the full length 32 kDa caspase-3 protein. Highly specific to caspase-3 and shows no cross-reaction with other caspase family members. Caspase-3 is ubiquitously expressed and like other caspases is synthesized as an inactive proenzyme. Upon activation, caspase-3 is cleaved generating two smaller subunits of 17 kDa and 12 kDa. Caspase-3 is one of the most extensively studied enzyme in apoptosis. Activation of caspase-3 occurs in response to a variety of apoptotic inducers.
