Description

Apoptosis is related to many diseases and is induced by a family of cell death receptors and their ligands. Cell death signals are transduced by death domain containing adapter molecules and members of the caspase family of proteases. A novel member in the caspase family was recently identified and designated ICE-LAP6, Mch6, and Apaf3.1,2,3 Caspase-9 and Apaf-1 bind to each other, which leads to caspase-9 activation.3 Caspase-9 is also activated by granzyme B and CPP32.1,2 Activated caspase-9 cleaves and activates caspase-3, one of the key proteases responsible for the proteolytic cleavage of many key proteins in apoptosis.3 Caspase-9 plays a central role in cell death induced by a wide variety of apoptosis inducers including TNF-α, TRAIL, anti-CD-95, FADD, and TRADD.4 Caspase-9 is expressed in a variety of human tissues.1,2WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
