体外研究(In Vitro)
Biotin-VAD-FMK is a synthetic peptide designed as a methyl ester to facilitate cell permeability. has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
体内研究(In Vivo)
To examine whether caspase-2 is activated in the absence of proteolytic cleavage, an in vivo affinity labeling approach is used, using the biotinylated caspase inhibitor biotin-VAD-fmk that detects only active caspases. has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
