Caspase-8，a member of the caspase-family of proteases，plays a key role in mediating Fas （CD95） and TNF induced apoptosis. Caspase-8 is synthesized as inactive pro-enzyme and activation of the enzyme involves proteolytic cleavage that leads to the release of the active p18 and p10 subunits. Activated caspase-8 is able to cleave and activate downstream caspases，such as caspase-3，-6，-7 and a death agonist member of the Bcl-2/Bcl-xL family，Bid，leading to apoptosis.
應用類型
Western blotting （0.5-4 ug/ml） in samples from mouse and rat origins. However， the optimal conditions should be determined individually. The antibody detects the 25 kDa large subunit of caspase-8. It does not detect the full-length of caspase-8.
免疫原
Synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding amino acid 392 of mouse caspase-8
來源宿主
兔
反應性
經檢測驗證，可與小鼠、大鼠種屬來源的Caspase-8 （Active）蛋白發生免疫反應.
