CASP9 (Caspase 9, Caspase-9, CASP-9, ICE-like Apoptotic Protease 6, ICE-LAP6, Apoptotic Protease Mch-6, Apoptotic Protease-activating Factor 3, APAF-3, MCH6) (PE)

Caspase 9 is a member of the cysteine-aspartic acid protease (caspase) family. Sequential activation of caspases plays a central role in the execution-phase of cell apoptosis. Caspases exist as inactive proenzymes which undergo proteolytic processing at conserved aspartic residues to produce 2 subunits, large and small, that dimerize to form the active enzyme. This protein is processed by caspase APAF1; this step is thought to be one of the earliest in the caspase activation cascade. Applications: Suitable for use in Immunofluorescence, ELISA and Western Blot. Other applications not tested. Recommended...
