Caspase 3 Active Protein | CASP3 active protein
Active Caspase 3 (CASP3)
20mM Tris, 150mM NaCl, pH8.0, containing 1mM EDTA, 1mM DTT, 0.01% SKL, 5% Trehalose and Proclin300.
Stability: The thermal stability is described by the loss rate. The loss rate was determined by accelerated thermal degradation test, that is, incubate the protein at 37 degree C for 48h, and no obvious degradation and precipitation were observed. The loss rate is less than 5% within the expiration date under appropriate storage condition.

Testing Data
(Caspase 3 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 that 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 and 7; and the protein itself is processed and activated by caspases 8, 9, and 10. Caspase 3 can hydrolyze the peptide substrate acetyl-Asp-Glu-Val-Asp-p-nitroanilide (Ac-DEVD-pNA) resulting in the release of the p-nitroaniline (pNA) moiety. p-Nitroaniline has a high absorbance at 405nm. Thus the activity of recombinant human caspase 3 can be measured by calculate the concentration of the pNA released from the substrate. The reaction was performed in adding 50L 2×buffer (50mM HEPES, 100mM NaCl, 10mM DTT, 2mM EDTA, 10% glycerol) to 96 well plates, then add 50L various concentration of caspe 3 (diluted by 1×buffer, 25mM HEPES, 50mM NaCl, 5mM DTT, 1mM EDTA, 5% glycerol) to each well, finally, add 5L 4mmol Ac-DEVD-pNA to each well. Cover the 96 well plates and incubate at 37 for 2h. p-Nitroaniline (pNA) standard curve prepare by double dilute 200M pNA with 1×buffer and record the OD value at 405nm. Calculate the caspase 3 activity in pmol of pNA released per min per g recombinat human caspase 3.The specific activity of recombinant human caspase 3 is 2196pmol/min/g.)

NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
Accurate Molecular Mass: 14kDa, 18kDa, 20kDa
NCBI Description
The protein encoded by this gene is a cysteine-aspartic acid protease that plays a central role in the execution-phase of cell apoptosis. The encoded protein cleaves and inactivates poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase while it cleaves and activates sterol regulatory element binding proteins as well as caspases 6, 7, and 9. This 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. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2017]
Uniprot Description
CASP3: Involved in the activation cascade of caspases responsible for apoptosis execution. At the onset of apoptosis it proteolytically cleaves poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) at a '216-Asp-|-Gly-217' bond. Cleaves and activates sterol regulatory element binding proteins (SREBPs) between the basic helix-loop- helix leucine zipper domain and the membrane attachment domain. Cleaves and activates caspase-6, -7 and -9. Involved in the cleavage of huntingtin. Triggers cell adhesion in sympathetic neurons through RET cleavage. Heterotetramer that consists of two anti-parallel arranged heterodimers, each one formed by a 17 kDa (p17) and a 12 kDa (p12) subunit. Interacts with BIRC6/bruce. Highly expressed in lung, spleen, heart, liver and kidney. Moderate levels in brain and skeletal muscle, and low in testis. Also found in many cell lines, highest expression in cells of the immune system. Inhibited by isatin sulfonamides. Belongs to the peptidase C14A family.
