Cellular Localisation: N/A
Molecular Weight: 49736
Clone: Polyclonal
Gene Name: CASP5 {ECO:0000303|PubMed:16893518, ECO:0000312|HGNC:HGNC:1506}
Gene ID: 838
Function: Thiol protease that acts as a mediator of programmed cell death (PubMed:29898893, PubMed:28314590) . Initiates pyroptosis, a programmed lytic cell death pathway through cleavage of Gasdermin-D (GSDMD) : cleavage releases the N-terminal gasdermin moiety (Gasdermin- D, N-terminal) that binds to membranes and forms pores, triggering pyroptosis (PubMed:29898893) . During non-canonical inflammasome activation, cuts CGAS and may play a role in the regulation of antiviral innate immune activation (PubMed:28314590) .
Summary: Tissue Location: Expressed in barely detectable amounts in most tissues except brain, highest levels being found in lung, liver and skeletal muscle.
Form: Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide. This antibody is purified through a protein A column, followed by peptide affinity purification.
Storage: Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 2 weeks. For long term storage store at -20°C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
Application: WB, IHC-P, FC
Dilution: WB--1:2000
