Caspase-13 Substrate LEED-AFC for cell activation

Ready-to-use fluorometric substrate for caspase-13 and related caspases that recognize the amino acid sequence LEED. Caspase-13 and related caspase activity can be quantified by fluorescent detection of free AFC after cleavage from the peptide substrate LEED-AFC at Ex. = 400 nm and Em. = 505 nm, using a fluorometer or multi-well fluorescence plate reader. Alternatively, a shift in fluorescence from blue to green upon cleavage can be visualized using a hand-held long-UV lamp.

Human and some mouse caspases are active in apoptosis and cell death and even in necrosis and inflammation. CASP Gene and orthologous enzymes have been identifies successfully in the signal transduction cascade and pathways.For cells, cell lines and tissues in culture till half confluency.
