Description

In-cell ELISA Kit

The Cleaved Caspase 3 Multispecies In-Cell ELISA Colorimetric Detection Kit is a simple method for quantifying intracellular proteins in whole cells. Principle of the method To perform the assay, cells are first plated, treated and fixed. Expression of the protein(s) of interest is monitored in wells of a microplate using target-specific primary antibodies (see the Important Product Information section for antibodies included in each kit) and a horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated detection reagent. The kit is supplied with a whole-cell stain to control for differences in cell plating, which is important when measuring relative levels of a protein with different treatments or assessing its post-translational modification (PTM) form. After staining, the results are analyzed by normalizing the absorbance (HRP activity) values to cell number, which adjusts for the cell plating differences among the wells. Rigorous validation Each manufactured lot of this ELISA kit is quality tested for criteria such as sensitivity, specificity, precision, and lot-to-lot consistency. See manual for more information on validation.

This gene encodes a protein which is a member of the cysteine-aspartic acid protease (caspase) family. Sequential activation of caspases plays a central role in the execution-phase of cell apoptosis. Caspases exist as inactive proenzymes which undergo proteolytic processing at conserved aspartic residues to produce two subunits,large and small,that dimerize to form the active enzyme. This protein cleaves and activates caspases 6,7 and 9,and the protein itself is processed by caspases 8,9 and 10. It is the predominant caspase involved in the cleavage of amyloid-beta 4A precursor protein,which is associated with neuronal death in Alzheimer′s disease. Alternative splicing of this gene results in two transcript variants that encode the same protein.
