Caspase-11, (also known as CASP-11, ICH-3, ICE-B) promotes IL-b processing by procaspase-1 (ICE) and therefore may also have a role in inflammatory response as evident by a 30 fold increase in CASP-11 activity by LPS. The mouse and rat CASP-11 (373aa) are most homologous to human CASP-4 (377aa) protein (ICErel-II, TX, ICH-2) and could possibly be the ortholog of human CASP-4. The pro-or zymogen form of CASP-11 is activated by Granzyme-B or cathepsin-B and the processed enzyme consists of two large p20 (20kD) and two small ~p10 (10kDa subunits. CASP-11 is highly expressed in lung and spleen, weaker in heart and very little in liver, kidney, testis and skeletal muscle but has not been detected in the brain. Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot, Immunoprecipitation and Immunohistochemistry (Fr). Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4 degrees C for short-term only. For long-term storage and to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, aliquot Store at -20 degrees C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months at -20 degrees C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
