Background:

A unique family of cysteine proteases has been described that differs in sequence, structure and substrate specificity from any previously described protease family. This family, termed Ced-3/caspase-1, is comprised of caspase-1, caspase-2, caspase-3, caspase-4, caspase-6, caspase-7 (also designated Mch3, ICE-LAP3 or CMH-1), caspase-9 and caspase-10. Ced-3/caspase-1 family members function as key components of the apoptotic machinery and act to destroy specific target proteins which are critical to cellular longevity. Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase plays an integral role in surveying for DNA mutations and double strand breaks.

Specificity:

Caspase-4 (E124) polyclonal antibody detects endogenous levels of Caspase-4 protein.

Alternative names:

Caspase-4; CASP-4; ICE(rel)-II; Protease ICH-2; Protease TX; Caspase-4 subunit 1; CASP4; ICH2; Caspase 4; Caspase4

Species reactivity:

Human,Mouse,Rat
