Background for Caspase-7 antibody (mAb):
Caspase-7 (
CASP7 or
apoptosis-related cysteine peptidase 7) is involved in the activation cascade of caspases responsible for apoptosis execution. The precursor form of
Caspase-7 is cleaved by
Caspase-3 and Caspase-10, which is activated by cell death stimuli and induces apoptosis.
Caspase-7 cleaves and activates sterol regulatory element binding proteins (SREBPs) and proteolytically cleaves poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP, see
PARP-1 C-terminal and
PARP-1 N-terminal antibodies).
Immunogen for Caspase-7 antibody (mAb):
This antibody was raised against a recombinant human Caspase-7 protein.
Application Notes for Caspase-7 antibody (mAb):
This Caspase-7 antibody has been validated for use in Western blotting (1 - 2 µg/ml dilution). For optimal results, primary antibody incubations should be performed at room temperature. The addition of 0.1% Tween 20 to all Blotto solutions may also reduce background. Individual optimization may be required.
Buffer:
PBS containing 0.02% sodium azide. Sodium azide is highly toxic.
Compatible Secondary Antibodies:
Active Motif has developed a variety of high-quality secondary antibodies for most applications, with anti-rabbit and anti-mouse conjugates to a broad line of high-quality fluorescent molecules, as well as horse radish peroxidase (HRP).

Caspase-7 mAb tested by Western blot.
Caspase-7 detection by Western blot. The analysis was performed using Jurkat nuclear extracts and Caspase-7 mAb at dilutions of 2 µg/ml (lane 1) and 0.5 µg/ml (lane 2). This antibody only detects the 35 kDa caspase-7 corresponding to pro-caspase-7 in non-apoptotic Jurkat cells.
