Supplier: AdipoGen AG20T0135C100
Monoclonal Antibody. Recognizes an epitope in the p19 subunit of human, mouse, rat, monkey and dog caspase-2. Isotype Rat IgG2akappa. Clone 10C6. Applications ELISA, FACS, ICC, IHC. Liquid. In PBS containing 0.02% sodium azide. Caspase-2 is a Class I caspase with a long prodomain necessary for nuclear localization. Upon activation of the apoptotic pathway, the procaspase is cleaved into smaller fragments. Caspase-2 is the nuclear apoptotic respondent to cellular genotoxic stress or mitotic catastrophe and is involved in the activation cascade of caspases responsible for apoptosis execution. Activation occurs upon recruitment to a complex containing a p53-induced death domain protein, PIDD. This suggests caspase-2 can be a nuclear initiator caspase with a requirement for caspase-9 and caspase-3 activation in downstream apoptotic events.
