Comment:

Anti-Caspase 3 Antibody is tested for use in WB, EM, Flow, ICC/IF, IHC-Fr, and IHC-P. Expect a band approximately 31.5 kDa on specific lysates. The antibody detects both pro Caspase-3(32 kDa) and the large subunit of the active/cleaved form (14-21 kDa) of Caspase-3. The large subunit of the cleaved form may appear as one or two or even as a stack of bands depending on the presence or absence of the Caspase-3 pro-domain. Specific conditions for reactivity should be optimized by the end user.

Background: Anti-Caspase-3 antibody detects human Caspase-3. Caspases are a family of cysteine proteases that are key mediators of programmed cell death or apoptosis. The precursor form of all caspases is composed of a prodomain, and large and small catalytic subunits. The active forms of caspases are generated by several stimuli including ligand-receptor interactions, growth factor deprivation and inhibitors of cellular functions. All known caspases require cleavage adjacent to aspartates to liberate one large and one small subunit, which associate into a2b2 tetramer to form the active enzyme. Gene for Caspase-3 also known as Yama, CPP32, and apopain codes for a 32- kDa protein. Caspase-3 cleaves the death substrate poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) to a specific 85 kDa form observed during apoptosis and is inhibitable by the CrmA protein. Other Caspase-3 substrates include DNA-PK, actin, GAS2, and procaspase-6, etc. Caspase-3 is activated by cleavage events at Asp-28/Ser-29 (between N-terminal pro-domain) and Asp-175/Ser-176 (between large and small subunits) to generate a large subunit of 17- kDa and a small subunit of 12- kDa. Anti-Caapase-3 is ideal for investigators involved in apoptosis, cytokines and growth factor research.
