Caspases are a family of cytosolic aspartate-specific cysteine proteases involved in the initiation and execution of apoptosis. Caspase-6 is a major apoptotic executioner (1,2). It exists as a pro-domain protein and is cleaved by caspase-3 into two active subunits, an 18kD and a 10kD subunit (3). Caspase-6 cleaves among many different intracellular proteins, nuclear lamins. Lamins play a significant role in maintaining the integrity of the cell membrane, and their cleavage results in subsequent cellular breakdown and death (4). Applications: Suitable for use in Flow Cytometry, Western Blot, Immunoprecipitation, Immunohistochemistry and Immunocytochemistry. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Western Blot: 1:10,000-1:20,000 Immunohistochemistry: 1:100-1:250 Immunocytochemistry: 1:100-1:250 Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Positive Control: MCF-7 cell lysates Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4 degrees C for short-term only. For long-term storage, aliquot and 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.
