Product Specifications

Immunogen

Recombinant catalytically active human Caspase-6 protein was used as immunogen.

Reactivity Notes

Cross reacts with Dog, Gerbil, Human, Mouse and Rat. Not yet tested in other species.

Specificity

This polyclonal antisera recognizes the large and small subunits of active/cleaved caspase-6. Whereas the antisera has a strong preference for active/cleaved caspase-6, in some cell or tissue systems or techniques the antisera may also recognize the ~34 kDa proform of caspase-6 as well as intermediate caspase-6 cleavage fragments.

Background: Caspase-6

Caspases belong to the cysteine-aspartic acid protease (Caspase) family which plays a major role in the transduction of the apoptotic signal and execution of apoptosis in mammalian cells. 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 could be processed by caspases 7, 8 and 10, and is thought to function as a downstream. Caspase-3 (CASP3/CPP32) and Caspase-6 (CASP6/Mch2) are the major active caspases in apoptotic cells and are activated in response to distinct apoptosis-inducing stimuli and in all cell, lines analyzed. Both CPP32 and Mch2 are present in apoptotic cells as multiple active species. Mch2 cleaves nuclear mitotic apparatus protein (NuMA) and mediates the shrinkage and fragmentation of nuclei.
