Description	Red FLICA Caspase 9 Assay Kit--SR-LEHD-FMK
Size	100 rxns
General information	Detect active caspase-9 with the red SR FLICA Caspase 9 Assay Kit. This in vitro assay employs the fluorescent inhibitor probe SR-LEHD-FMK to label active caspase-9 enzymes in living cells or tissue samples. Analyze the fluorescent signal using fluorescence microscopy, a fluorescent plate reader, or by flow cytometry (green or yellow laser required). FLICA (Fluorescent Labeled Inhibitor of Caspases) probes are comprised of an inhibitor peptide sequence that binds to active caspase enzymes, a fluoromethyl ketone (FMK) moiety that results in an irreversible binding event with the enzyme, and a fluorescent tag (either carboxyfluorescein or sulforhodamine B) reporter. For a caspase-9 inhibitor, the enzyme recognition sequence is leucine-glutamic acid-histidine-aspartic acid (LEHD). The FLICA probe interacts with the enzymatic reactive center of an activated caspase via the recognition sequence, forming a covalent thioether adduct with the enzyme through the FMK moiety. FLICA probes are cell permeant and non-cytotoxic. Unbound SR- FLICA reagent is washed away; the remaining red fluorescent signal is a direct measure of caspase-9 activity at the time the probe was added. Detection of nuclear morphology is also possible with the additional kit component, Hoechst 33342.
