DATASHEET  

The caspases are a group of cysteine enzymes, which cleave proteins in response to intrinsic and extrinsic pathways that cause apoptotic cell death. The caspases can be grouped into two subgroups based on their roles in apoptosis. Initiator caspases (caspases 2, 8, 9, and 10) are activated through the apoptosis-signaling pathways and activate the effector caspases (caspases 3, 6, and 7) which carry out apoptosis. Caspase cascades are initiated through assembly of multiprotein complexes that trigger activation of the initiator caspases, which are then released and are able to activate the downstream effector caspases.

Western blot analysis of Caspase expression in human Jurkat cells. The blot was probed with anti-Caspase-3 at 1:500 (lane 1) and 1:1000 (lane 2), anti-Caspase-6 at 1:250 (lane 3) and 1:500 (lane 4), anti-Caspase-7 at 1:500 (lane 5) and 1:1000 (lane 6), as well as anti-Caspase-8 at 1:250 (lane 7) and 1:500 (lane 8).



Clone (M382) was generated from a recombinant protein containing amino acid residues in the C-terminal region of human Caspase-8.

The antibody detects a 55 kDa* protein corresponding to the molecular weight of Caspase-8 on SDS-PAGE immunoblots of human Jurkat, K562, and A431 cells.

*All molecular weights (MW) are confirmed by comparison to Bio-Rad Rainbow Markers and to western blot mobilities of known proteins with similar MW.
