Description
Cleaved-CASP4/CASP5 (D270/D311) Antibody (PACO05468)
The Cleaved Casp4/Casp5 (D270/D311) Antibody (PAC00548) is a highly specific and sensitive tool for studying the cleavage of caspases 4 and 5 at the D270 and D311 sites, respectively. These caspases play crucial roles in the inflammatory response and pyroptosis, making them key players in immune regulation and cell death pathways. This polyclonal antibody, produced in rabbits, is validated for detection in human samples and is recommended for use in Western blot applications. By targeting the cleavage sites of caspases 4 and 5, researchers can better understand the mechanisms underlying inflammatory processes and pyroptotic cell death.
With its high reactivity and specificity, the Cleaved Casp4/Casp5 (D270/D311) Antibody is an essential tool for studies in immunology, cell biology, and disease research. Its ability to detect cleaved forms of caspases 4 and 5 provides valuable insights into the molecular events that drive inflammation and cell death, offering new avenues for therapeutic intervention in conditions such as inflammatory diseases and cancer.

UniProt Protein Function: | CASP4: Involved in the activation cascade of caspases responsible for apoptosis execution. Cleaves caspase-1. Heterotetramer that consists of two anti-parallel arranged heterodimers, each one formed by a small and a large subunit. Widely expressed, with highest levels in spleen and lung. Moderate expression in heart and liver, low expression in skeletal muscle, kidney and testis. Not found in the brain. Belongs to the peptidase C14A family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing. |

NCBI Summary: | This gene encodes a protein that is a member of the cysteine-aspartic acid protease (caspase) family. Sequential activation of caspases plays a central role in the execution-phase of cell apoptosis. Caspases exist as inactive proenzymes composed of a prodomain and a large and small protease subunit. Activation of caspases requires proteolytic processing at conserved internal aspartic residues to generate a heterodimeric enzyme consisting of the large and small subunits. This caspase is able to cleave and activate its own precursor protein, as well as caspase 1 precursor. When overexpressed, this gene induces cell apoptosis. Alternative splicing results in transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008] |
