Overview

Caspase-8 is a protein encoded by the CASP8 gene which is approximately 55, 3 kDa. Caspase-8 is localised to the cytoplasm and is involved in the TNFR1 pathway, dimerization of procaspase-8, activated TLR4 signalling, apoptosis signalling and toll-like receptor signalling pathways. This protein falls under the cysteine-aspartic acid protease family. It pays a role in the programmed cell death induced by Fas and various apoptotic stimuli. Caspase-8 isoform 1, 5 and 7 are expressed in a wide variety of tissues. Mutations in the CASP8 gene may result in a caspase-8 deficiency. STJ97394 was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen. This polyclonal antibody detects endogenous levels of Caspase-8 protein.
