Caspase-7 is activated upon apoptotic induction. Caspase-7 p22 subunit (22 kDa) and p20 subunit (18 kDa) are observed. The molecular weight observed is consistent with what has been described in the literature (PMID : 16352606). This antibody reacts with an unidentifiable protein around 48 kDa. ab256469 was shown to specifically react with Caspase-7 in wild-type HAP1 cells as signal was lost in Caspase-7 knockout cells. Wild-type and Caspase-7 knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. ab256469 and ab181602 (Rabbit anti-GAPDH loading control) were incubated 1 hour at room temperature at 1/1000 dilution and 1/200,000 dilution respectively. Blots were developed with Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG, (H+L), Peroxidase conjugated (ab97051) secondary antibody at 1/100,000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature before imaging. The blot was developed on a BIO-RAD® ChemiDoc™ instrument using the ECL technique. Blocking and Diluting Buffer and concentration : 5% NFDM/TBST.

Supplementary information

Cleaved Caspase-7 also known as CASP-7 or cleaved Caspase is a protein involved in the execution phase of apoptosis. Its molecular weight is approximately 34 kDa before activation. It belongs to the family of cysteine-aspartic proteases and originates from a precursor with higher molecular weight. Cleavage activates it facilitating its expression in various tissues especially in locations where apoptosis is a regular process such as the liver heart and brain.
Biological function summary

Cleaved Caspase-7 plays a role by executing apoptosis through cleaving cellular substrates after aspartic acid residues. It operates independently or as part of the apoptosome complex which includes other caspases and protein factors. This complex contributes to the orderly dismantling of cellular structures during programmed cell death ensuring the removal of damaged or unnecessary cells in a controlled manner.

Pathways

Cleaved Caspase-7 participates actively in the apoptosis signaling pathway and to a lesser extent in the inflammatory response. It acts downstream in the cascade initiated by pro-apoptotic signals wherein it shares significant functional similarities with Caspase-3. Together with Caspase-8 which acts earlier in the pathway these proteins form a network that ensures the fidelity of programmed cell death. Caspase-8 initiates the cascade leading to the activation of Caspase-7.

Cleaved Caspase-7 associates notably with cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. Dysregulation of its activity often linked through aberrant apoptosis can lead to the unchecked growth of cancer cells or excessive neuronal death as seen in disorders like Alzheimer's disease. Caspase-8 is often implicated in these pathologies as well highlighting their intertwined roles in cell death and survival pathways. Consequently studying cleaved Caspase-7 helps improve understanding of and develop therapeutic strategies for these significant health issues.

Target data

Thiol protease involved in different programmed cell death processes, such as apoptosis, pyroptosis or granzyme-mediated programmed cell death, by proteolytically cleaving target proteins (PubMed : 11257230, PubMed : 11257231, PubMed : 11701129, PubMed : 15314233, PubMed : 16916640, PubMed : 17646170, PubMed : 18723680, PubMed : 19581639, PubMed : 8521391, PubMed : 8567622, PubMed : 8576161, PubMed : 9070923). Has a marked preference for Asp-Glu-Val-Asp (DEVD) consensus sequences, with some plasticity for alternate non-canonical sequences (PubMed : 12824163, PubMed : 15314233, PubMed : 17697120, PubMed : 19581639, PubMed : 20566630, PubMed : 23650375, PubMed : 23897474, PubMed : 27032039). Its involvement in the different programmed cell death processes is probably determined by upstream proteases that activate CASP7 (By similarity). Acts as an effector caspase involved in the execution phase of apoptosis : following cleavage and activation by initiator caspases (CASP8, CASP9 and/or CASP10), mediates execution of apoptosis by catalyzing cleavage of proteins, such as CLSPN, PARP1, PTGES3 and YY1 (PubMed : 10497198, PubMed : 16123041, PubMed : 16374543, PubMed : 16916640, PubMed : 18723680, PubMed : 20566630, PubMed : 21555521, PubMed : 22184066, PubMed : 22451931, PubMed : 27889207, PubMed : 28863261, PubMed : 31586028, PubMed : 34156061, PubMed : 35338844, PubMed : 35446120). Compared to CASP3, acts as a minor executioner caspase and cleaves a limited set of target proteins (PubMed : 18723680). Acts as a key regulator of the inflammatory response in response to bacterial infection by catalyzing cleavage and activation of the sphingomyelin phosphodiesterase SMPD1 in the extracellular milieu, thereby promoting membrane repair (PubMed : 21157428). Regulates pyroptosis in intestinal epithelial cells : cleaved and activated by CASP1 in response to S.typhimurium infection, promoting its secretion to the extracellular milieu, where it catalyzes activation of SMPD1, generating ceramides that repair membranes and counteract the action of gasdermin-D (GSDMD) pores (By similarity). Regulates granzyme-mediated programmed cell death in hepatocytes : cleaved and activated by granzyme B (GZMB) in response to bacterial infection, promoting its secretion to the extracellular milieu, where it catalyzes activation of SMPD1, generating ceramides that repair membranes and counteract the action of perforin (PRF1) pores (By similarity). Following cleavage by CASP1 in response to inflammasome activation, catalyzes processing and inactivation of PARP1, alleviating the transcription repressor activity of PARP1 (PubMed : 22464733). Acts as an inhibitor of type I interferon production during virus-induced apoptosis by mediating cleavage of antiviral proteins CGAS, IRF3 and MAVS, thereby preventing cytokine overproduction (By similarity). Cleaves and activates sterol regulatory element binding proteins (SREBPs) (PubMed : 8643593). Cleaves phospholipid scramblase proteins XKR4, XKR8 and XKR9 (By similarity). In case of infection, catalyzes cleavage of Kaposi sarcoma-associated herpesvirus protein ORF57, thereby preventing expression of viral lytic genes (PubMed : 20159985). Cleaves BIRC6 following inhibition of BIRC6-caspase binding by DIABLO/SMAC (PubMed : 36758104, PubMed : 36758106).. Isoform Beta. Lacks enzymatic activity.
