Mouse, Rat
Conjugated Peptide
A synthetic peptide corresponding to the N-terminus of rat Caspase-2 protein conjugated to Keyhole Limpet Hemocyanin (KLH) through a cysteine residue linker.
This affinity purified antibody is directed against rat and mouse caspase-2. The antibody detects long and short forms of the protein.  Antiserum was purified against the immunizing peptide.  This antibody reacts with mouse and rat caspase-2, but not caspase-2 from human sources. Cross reactivity with caspase-2 from other sources has not been determined. Rat and mouse caspase-2 show 94% homology.  There is no significant homology to the human form.

Application Details

ELISA, WB
This affinity purified polyclonal antibody was tested by ELISA and immunoblotting and was found to be reactive with 48 kDa mouse and rat caspase-2.  A control and rat caspase-2 transfected human 293 cell lysate was used to show by immunoblotting that this antibody detects rat caspase-2.  No reaction was observed against human caspase-2.  Immunoblot of mouse neuronal cell lysates from wild-type and caspase-2 (-/-) mice (not shown) was used to show that this antibody cross reacts with mouse caspase-2. A 1:750 dilution is recommended for immunoblot. This product was assayed against 1.0 µg of immunizing peptide in a standard sandwich ELISA using HRP conjugated Affinity Purified anti-Rabbit IgG [H&L] (Goat) code #611-1302 and TMB as a substrate for 30 minutes at room temperature.  A working dilution of 1:1,500 to 1:6,000 is suggested for this product.

Apoptosis occurs during normal cellular development and involves dramatic changes in cellular structure.  Disruption of apoptosis may contribute to cancer and other diseases.  Caspases are a family of cysteine proteases that are key mediators of programmed cell death or apoptosis. Caspase-2 has been called ICH-1 in human, CED-3 in C.elegans and NEDD-2 in mouse.  Caspase-2 is synthesized as an inactive precursor that is processed in cells undergoing apoptosis.  The precursor form of all caspases is composed of a pro-domain, and large and small catalytic subunits.  The active forms of caspases are generated by several stimuli, including ligand-receptor interactions, growth factor deprivation and inhibitors of cellular functions.  Caspase-2 is activated in vitro by caspase-1, caspase-3 and granzyme B.  Caspase-2 functions as an upstream apoptosis initiator that participates in the activation of downstream caspases, such as caspase-3, caspase-6 and caspase-7.  Caspase-2 is highly expressed in embryonic mouse brain but not in adult neural tissue.  Alternative mRNA splicing produces a long (48 kDa) and short (35 kDa) form of caspase-2.  These forms show tissue specificity and function either as inducers or suppressors of apoptosis.  Mature caspase-2 is 435 amino acids in length cleaved (~50 kDa) and is cleaved upon activation into 10 and 20 kDa subunits.
