Nori Porcine Cappase 8 ELISA Kit

DataSheet   

This ELISA kit is for quantification of CASP8 in porcine. This is a quick ELISA assay that reduces time to 50% compared to the conventional method, and the entire assay only takes 3 hours. This assay employs the quantitative sandwich enzyme immunoassay technique and uses biotin-streptavidin chemistry to improve the performance of the assays. An antibody specific for CASP8 has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and any CASP8 present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After washing away any unbound substances, a detection antibody specific for CASP8 is added to the wells. Following wash to remove any unbound antibody reagent, a detection reagent is added. After intensive wash a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of CASP8 bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped, and the intensity of the color is measured.

Background: 

Caspase-8 (CASP8) is an apoptosis-related cysteine peptidase encoded by the CASP8 gene. CASP8 orthologs have been identified in nearly all mammals. Caspase-8 is a member of the caspase family of proteins, and has been shown to be an executioner protein of apoptosis. Sequential activation of caspases plays a central role in the execution-phase of cell apoptosis. Caspases exist as inactive proenzymes that undergo proteolytic processing by upstream caspases (caspase-8, -9) at conserved aspartic residues to produce two subunits, large and small, that dimerize to form the active enzyme in the form of a heterotetramer. The precursor of this caspase is cleaved by caspase 3, caspase 10, and caspase 9. It is activated upon cell death stimuli and induces apoptosis. Alternative splicing results in four transcript variants, encoding three distinct isoforms. Caspase 7 has been shown to interact with Caspase 8,[1] Survivin[2] and XIAP.[3][4][5] An anti-apoptotic protein human survivin is a direct inhibitor of caspase-3 and -7.[2]
