Activation of ICE-family proteases/caspases initiates apoptosis in mammalian cells. The Caspase-3 Fluorometric Protease Assay Kits provide a simple and convenient means for assaying the activity of caspases that recognize the sequence DEVD. The assay is based on detection of cleavage of substrate DEVD-AFC (AFC: 7-amino-4-trifluoromethyl coumarin). DEVD-AFC emits blue light (lmax 400nm); upon cleavage of the substrate by CPP32 or related caspases, free AFC emits a yellow-green fluorescence (lmax 505nm), which can be quantified using a fluorometer or a fluorescence microtiter plate reader. Comparison of the fluorescence of AFC from an apoptotic sample with an uninduced control allows determination of the fold increase in CPP32 activity.
