Anti-CASP12 (CASP12P1, caspase 12, caspase 12 pseudogene 1)

Caspase 12 is an enzyme known as a cysteine protease. It belongs to a family of enzymes called caspases that cleave their substrates at C-terminal aspartic acid residues. The CASP12 gene was mapped to chromosome 11q22.3. Csp12L attenuates the inflammatory and innate immune response to endotoxins and in doing so may constitute a risk factor for developing sepsis. The estrogen-mediated inhibition of CSP12L expression is a built-in mechanism that has evolved to protect females from infection by favoring a more robust inflammatory response to pathogens, perhaps notably in childbirth. UniProt Number: Q6UXS9, Gene ID: CASP12, Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot and Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin). Recommended Dilution: Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Handling: Store at -20?C for one year. After reconstitution, store at 4?C for one month. Can also be aliquoted and stored frozen at -20?C for long term., Avoid repeated freezing and thawing. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
