Rabbit Anti-Caspase-6 subunit p11/FITC Conjugated antibody
background:
Caspase-6 Involved in the activation cascade of caspases responsible for apoptosis execution. Cleaves poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase in vitro, as well as lamins. Overexpression promotes programmed cell death. Subunit is compose of heterodimer of a18 kDa (p18) and a 11 kDa (p11) subunit. Subcellular location at cytoplasmic. Cleavages by CPP32, caspase-8 or -10 generate the two active subunits. It belongs to the peptidase C14 family.
Function:
Involved in the activation cascade of caspases responsible for apoptosis execution. Cleaves poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase in vitro, as well as lamins. Overexpression promotes programmed cell death.
Subunit:
Heterotetramer that consists of two anti-parallel arranged heterodimers, each one formed by a 18 kDa (p18) and a 11 kDa (p11) subunit. Interacts with BIRC6/bruce.
Subcellular Location:
Cytoplasm.
Post-translational modifications:
Cleavages by caspase-3, caspase-8 or -10 generate the two active subunits.
Similarity:
Belongs to the peptidase C14A family.
