Caspase 3 is a cysteine protease that is rapidly activated during apoptosis and that cleaves several substrates including poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP). Caspase 3 is activated by Caspases 8 9 and 10 and cleaves and activates caspase 6 and 7. Caspase 3 cleaves the amyloid precursor protein (APP) contributing to Amyloid beta formation and has been implicated in Alzheimera€(TM)s disease and proposed as a target for drug discovery.Activity is quantified by the release of p-nitroaniline which is measured by absorbance at 405 nm.References 1.
