    Protocol

    Specificity / Sensitivity

    Caspase-9 Antibody (Rat Specific) detects endogenous levels of full length (51 kDa) and large fragments of caspase-9. The antibody does not recognize any other cleaved caspases.

    Species Reactivity:

    Rat

    Source / Purification

    Polyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding aspartic acid 353 of rat caspase-9. Antibodies are purified by protein A and peptide affinity chromatography.

    Background

    Caspase-9 (ICE-LAP6, Mch6) is an important member of the cysteine aspartic acid protease (caspase) family (1,2). Upon apoptotic stimulation, cytochrome c released from mitochondria associates with the 47 kDa procaspase-9/Apaf-1. Apaf-1 mediated activation of caspase-9 involves intrinsic proteolytic processing, resulting in cleavage at Asp315 and producing a p35 subunit. Another cleavage occurs at Asp330, producing a p37 subunit that can serve to amplify the apoptotic response (3-6). Cleaved caspase-9 further processes other caspase members, including caspase-3 and caspase-7, to initiate a caspase cascade, which leads to apoptosis (7-10).
