Product Description: Caspase is a family of proteases involved in the process of apoptosis, including more than 10 members. Caspase-3 is the most important terminal protease in the process of apoptosis, and it is also the most studied caspase; it activates pro-caspase-2,6,7,9, specifically hydrolyzes a variety of key apoptotic proteins, such as PARP, and mediates chromatin condensation, apoptotic body formation and nuclear DNA fragmentation. The caspase-3 colorimetric assay is based on the hydrolysis of the peptide substrate DEVD-pNA (AspGlu-Val-Asp-p-nitroanilide) by caspase-3, resulting in the release of the p-nitroaniline (pNA) moiety. pNitroaniline has a high absorbance at 405 nm. The activity of Caspase can be calculated by detecting pNA. This kit is suitable for mammalian tissue and cell
