FITC-C6-D(OMe)E(OMe)VD(OMe)-FMK

Activation of caspases plays a central role in apoptosis. FITC-C6-D(OMe)E(OMe)VD(OMe)-FMK provides a convenient means for sensitive detection of activated caspase-3 in living cells. FITC-C6-D(OMe)E(OMe)VD(OMe)-FMK is cell permeable, nontoxic, and irreversibly binds to activated caspase-3 in apoptotic cells. Based on our in-house studies FITC-C6-D(OMe)E(OMe)VD(OMe)-FMK gave the highest signal/background ratio compared to other DEVD-FMK probes we tested. The FITC label allows for direct detection of activated caspases in apoptotic cells by fluorescence microscopy, flow cytometry, or fluorescence plate reader.

Fluorometric detection of active caspases 3/7 using FITC-C6-D(OMe)E(OMe)VD(OMe)-FMK (Cat# 13418) in Jurkat cells. The cells were treated with 1 &mu;M staurosporine for 4 hours (Green) while untreated cells were used as a control (Red). Control or treated Cells were incubated with FITC-C6-D(OMe)E(OMe)VD(OMe)-FMK for 1 hour at 37 &deg;C, and then washed once after stain.&nbsp; Fluorescent intensity was measured with NovoCyte&trade; 3000 Flow Cytometer FITC channel.
