This is a synthetic peptide designed for use in combination with anti-Casp2 Antibody. It may block above mentioned antibody from binding to its target protein in western blot and/or immunohistochecmistry under proper experimental settings. There is no guarantee for its use in other applications.
Casp2 is involved in the activation cascade of caspases responsible for apoptosis execution. It might function by either activating some proteins required for cell death or inactivating proteins necessary for cell survival. It may be important in multistep carcinogenesis.
