Caspase-4 Assay Kit (Colorimetric) | KTA3023

Product Overwiew:

Caspase-4 Assay Kit (Colorimetric) provides a simple and convenient method for detecting the activity of caspase-4.

Background:

Caspase family of cysteine proteases has been shown to play a key role in apoptosis. Mammalian caspases can be subdivided into three functional groups: initiator caspases (Caspase 2, 8, 9 and 10), executioner caspases (Caspase-3, 6 and 7), and inflammatory caspases (Caspase 1, 4, 5, 11 and 12). Caspase-4 (also known as Ich-4, ICErelII, TX) is a member of the caspase-family of cysteine proteases. The active caspase-4 is a heterotetramer consisting of two large and two small subunits.
