Product Specification
EC: 3.4.22.36
SOURCE/HOST: Produced in E. coli.
FORMULATION: Lyophilized.
RECONSTITUTION: Reconstitute to 1U/µl with PBS containing 15% glycerol.
SPECIFIC ACTIVITY: ~20’000U/mg protein. One unit is defined as the amount of enzyme that cleaves 1nmol of the caspase substrate YVAD-pNA (pNA: p-nitroanaline) per hour at 37°C in a reaction solution containing 50mM HEPES, pH 7.2, 50mM sodium chloride, 0.1% CHAPS, 10mM EDTA, 5% glycerol and 10mM DTT.
APPLICATION: Useful in studying enzyme regulation and inhibitors, determining target substrate, screening caspase inhibitors, or as a positive control in caspase assays. We recommend using 1 unit per assay for analyzing caspase activity.
QUALITY CONTROL: Routinely tested for its ability to cleave the caspase-1 colorimetric substrate Ac-YVAD-pNA (Prod. No. ALX-260-026).
SHIPPING: SHIPPED ON DRY ICE
LONG TERM STORAGE: -80°C
HANDLING: Avoid freeze/thaw cycles. After reconstitution, prepare aliquots and store at -80°C.
General Information
Caspase-1 is the prototypical member of the caspase family of cysteine proteases. Caspase-1 exists in cells as an inactive 45kDa pro-enzyme. The pro-enzyme is matured by proteolysis to yield large (20kDa) and small (10kDa) subunits. The active enzyme is a heterotetramer consisting of two large and two small subunits. To date the mechanism of regulation of caspase-1 activation is complex and poorly understood. In THP-1 cells, a large proportion of the caspase-1 is present in the inactive pro-enzyme form.
BACKGROUND/TECHNICAL INFORMATION Swiss-Prot link P29466: Caspase-1 (human) (precursor)

PURITY: ≥95% (SDS-PAGE)
FORMULATION: Lyophilized.
RECONSTITUTION: Reconstitute to 1U/µl with PBS containing 15% glycerol.
SPECIFIC ACTIVITY: ~5'000U/mg protein. One unit is defined as the amount of enzyme that cleaves 1nmol of the caspase substrate WEHD-pNA per hour at 37°C in a reaction solution containing 50mM HEPES, pH 7.2, 50mM NaCl, 0.1% CHAPS, 10mM EDTA, 5% glycerol and 10mM DTT.
APPLICATION: In combination with caspase-5 activity assays, the enzyme is useful in screening caspase inhibitors, studying enzyme regulation and kinetics, determining target substrate or as a positive control in caspase-5 activity assays. We recommend using 1 unit per assay for analyzing caspase activity.
