Molecular Formula : C53H64N10O19
Description : Highly fluorescent substrate for the determination of caspase-1 (ICE) and caspase-1-like enzyme activities. Cleavage of this substrate at position P1 Asp causes continuous fluorescent assay monitored at emission wavelength of 393 nM. Furthermore, caspase-3 (apopain, CPP-32) is only weakly active on this substrate. Both caspase-1 and caspase-3 are involved in apoptosis.
