Description: Other names: CASP3, CPP32, Caspase-3 subunit p12, Yama protein,SREBP cleavage activity 1

Characteristics: Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody

Specificity: A synthetic peptide correscponding to N-terminal residues of Human Pro-Caspase-3 was used as immunogen. The antibody only recognizes the pro-form of Caspase-3. It does not react with the cleaved forms (active enzyme) of Caspase-3.

Comments:

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 32 kDa proenzyme. It is activated by proteolytic cleavage into two active subunits only when cells undergo apoptosis (3).
