Background: Caspase 14 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the CASP14 gene. CASP14 belongs the evolutionarily conserved caspase family. CASP14 was assigned to chromosome 19p13.1. Using Northern blot and semiquantitative RT-PCR analyses, it was showed that CASP14 was transcriptionally upregulated during maintenance of confluent cultures of human epidermal keratinocytes. The expression and processing of this caspase may be involved in keratinocyte terminal differentiation, which is important for the formation of the skin barrier. Caspase 14 seems to play a role in keratinocyte differentiation and cornification and probably regulates maturation of the epidermis by proteolytically processing filaggrin.

Immunogen: A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the C-terminus of human Caspase-14, different from the related rat and mouse sequences by four amino acids.

Clonality: Polyclonal

Contents: Each vial contains antibody formulated with stabilizing components, 0.9mg NaCl, 0.2mg Na2HPO4, 0.05mg Thimerosal, 0.05mg NaN3.
*This antibody is supplied in a stabilized formulation. Compatibility with conjugation reactions depends on the chemistry of the conjugation method used. For conjugation methods that are not compatible with the stabilizing components present in this formulation, a carrier-free antibody format is required.

Purification: Immunogen affinity purified.

Reconstitution: Add 0.2ml of distilled water will yield a concentration of 500ug/ml.
