ANTI-CASPASE-12 Chemische Eigenschaften,Einsatz,Produktion Methoden
Verwenden
Monoclonal Anti-Caspase 12 has been used in immunoblotting and immunocytochemistry (4% paraformaldehyde-fixed, paraffin-embedded).
Allgemeine Beschreibung
Caspase 12 is a protein that belongs to a family of enzymes called caspases that cleave their substrates at C-terminal aspartic acid residues. The human caspase 12 gene is localized at a single locus within the caspase 1/ICE gene cluster on chromosome 11q22. The functionality is lost in humans and they cannot play a role in Alzheimer′s disease. Caspase-12 is detected in endoplasmic reticulum (ER), plays a role in ER-mediated apoptosis and inflammatory caspase activation pathway.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Murine caspase 12 (CASP12) is activated during endoplasmic reticulum stress and activates other caspases which act on substrates, ultimately leading to apoptosis. The protein has been shown to be activated during progression of retinal degeneration in animal models. In mice models, CASP12 has been shown to cause neuronal death resulting from ischemia/reperfusion. Casp12 might stimulate nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) by directing the post-translational degradation of inhibitor of kappa B (IκBα). Overexpression of caspase 12 induces apoptosis, which is inhibited by the pan caspase inhibitor carbobenzoxy-valyl-alanyl-aspartyl-[O-methyl]- fluoromethyl ketone (z-VAD-FMK).
