Catalog Number :

600-401-412

Name :

Anti-CASPASE-2 (RABBIT) Antibody - 600-401-412

Display Name :

Caspase-2 Antibody

Application Note :

This affinity purified polyclonal antibody was tested by ELISA and immunoblotting and was found to be reactive with 48 kDa mouse and rat caspase-2. A control and rat caspase-2 transfected human 293 cell lysate was used to show by immunoblotting that this antibody detects rat caspase-2. No reaction was observed against human caspase-2. Immunoblot of mouse neuronal cell lysates from wild-type and caspase-2 (-/-) mice (not shown) was used to show that this antibody cross reacts with mouse caspase-2.This product was assayed against 1.0 µg of immunizing peptide in a standard sandwich ELISA using HRP conjugated Affinity Purified anti-Rabbit IgG [H&L] (Goat) code #611-1302 and TMB as a substrate for 30 minutes at room temperature. A working dilution of 1:1,500 to 1:6,000 is suggested for this product. A 1:750 dilution is recommended for immunoblot.

Immunogen :

A synthetic peptide corresponding to the N-terminus of rat Caspase-2 protein conjugated to Keyhole Limpet Hemocyanin (KLH) through a cysteine residue linker.

Packing Type :

Dry Ice

Physical State :

Liquid (sterile filtered)

Preservative :

0.01% (w/v) Sodium Azide

Purity and Specificity :

This affinity purified antibody is directed against rat and mouse caspase-2. The antibody detects long and short forms of the protein. Antiserum was purified against the immunizing peptide. This antibody reacts with mouse and rat caspase-2, but not caspase-2 from human sources. Cross reactivity with caspase-2 from other sources has not been determined. Rat and mouse caspase-2 show 94% homology. There is no significant homology to the human form.

Species Reactivity :

mouse, rat

Storage :

Store vial at -20° C prior to opening. Aliquot contents and freeze at -20° C or below for extended storage. Avoid cycles of freezing and thawing. Centrifuge product if not completely clear after standing at room temperature. This product is stable for several weeks at 4° C as an undiluted liquid. Dilute only prior to immediate use.

Background :

Apoptosis occurs during normal cellular development and involves dramatic changes in cellular structure. Disruption of apoptosis may contribute to cancer and other diseases. Caspases are a family of cysteine proteases that are key mediators of programmed cell death or apoptosis. Caspase-2 has been called ICH-1 in human, CED-3 in C.elegans and NEDD-2 in mouse. Caspase-2 is synthesized as an inactive precursor that is processed in cells undergoing apoptosis. The precursor form of all caspases is composed of a pro-domain, 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. Caspase-2 is activated in vitro by caspase-1, caspase-3 and granzyme B. Caspase-2 functions as an upstream apoptosis initiator that participates in the activation of downstream caspases, such as caspase-3, caspase-6 and caspase-7. Caspase-2 is highly expressed in embryonic mouse brain but not in adult neural tissue. Alternative mRNA splicing produces a long (48 kDa) and short (35 kDa) form of caspase-2. These forms show tissue specificity and function either as inducers or suppressors of apoptosis. Mature caspase-2 is 435 amino acids in length cleaved (~50 kDa) and is cleaved upon activation into 10 and 20 kDa subunits.
