CAS Number: 189950-66-1 Molecular Weight: 638.22 Salt Form: TFA Purity: >96% Sequence (3-letter): Ac-Asp-Glu-Val-Asp-pNA Sequence (1-letter): Ac-DEVD-pNA Storage: -20 ?C or below Solubility: DMSO and acetonitrile:methanol (1:1) to 1 mg/ml Caspase-3 (Apopain) Substrate is a colorimetric substrate for caspase-3 with the sequence Ac-DEVD-pNA. Caspase-3 is a protease that is rapidly activated during apoptosis and that cleaves several substrates, including poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP). Cleavage of Ac-DEVD-pNA is monitored by measuring absorbance at 405 nm. Ac-DEVD-pNA is poorly cleaved by caspase-2. Km = 18 ?M (Casp-1), 11 ?M (Casp-3), 32 ?M (Casp-4), 180 ?M (Casp-6), 12 ?M (Casp-7)
