Background:
Caspase-9 Antibody: Apoptosis is related to many diseases and induced by a family of cell death receptors and their ligands. Cell death signals are transduced by death domain containing adapter molecules and members of the caspase family of proteases. A novel member in the caspase family was recently identified and designated ICE-LAP6, Mch6, and Apaf-3. Caspase-9 and Apaf-1 bind to each other, which leads to caspase-9 activation. Caspase-9 is also activated by granzyme B and CPP32. Activated caspase-9 cleaves and activates caspase-3 that is one of the key proteases, being responsible for the proteolytic cleavage of many key proteins in apoptosis. Caspase-9 play a central role in cell death induced by a wide variety of apoptosis activators including TNFα, TRAIL, anti-CD-95, FADD, and TRADD. Caspase-9 is expressed in a variety of human tissues.

DISCLAIMER:
Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user. The information provided is a guideline for product use. This product is for research use only.
Homology:
Predicted species reactivity based on immunogen sequence: Rat (50%).
Immunogen:
Anti-Caspase 9 antibody (2073) was raised against a peptide corresponding to 20 amino acids near the center of human Caspase 9.

The immunogen is located within amino acids 290-340 of Caspase 9.
ISOFORMS:
Human CASPASE 9 has 4 isoforms, including isoform 1 (416aa, 46kD), isoform 2 (266aa, 30kD), isoform 3 (154aa, 17kD), and isoform 4 (333aa, 37kD). Mouse CASPASE 9 has one isoform (454aa, 50kD) and Rat CASPASE 9 also has one isoform (454aa, 50kD). 2073 can detect human and mouse isoform.

VALIDATION:

Independent Antibody Validation in Cell lines (Figure 1) shows similar CASPASE 9 expression profile in human cell lines detected by two independent anti-CASPASE 9 antibodies that recognize different epitopes, 2071 against N-terminus domain and 2073 against central domain.  CASPASE 9 proteins are detected in the most tested cell lines at different expression levels by the two independent antibodies.
