7.背景Background:
Caspase-6 (also know as Mch2) is a member of the caspase-family of cysteine proteases. Similar to other caspases, caspase-6 also exists in cells as an inactive proenzyme. During apoptosis procaspase-6 is processed at aspartate residues by self-proteolysis and/or cleavage by another caspase. The processed active form of caspase-6 consists of large (18 kDa) and small (11 kDa) subunits which associate to form the active enzyme. Active caspase-6 has been shown involving in the proteolysis of PARP (poly ADP-ribose polymerase), an enzyme that is involved in DNA repair and henomic maintenance. The recombinant active human caspase-6 was expressed in E. coli. The active caspase-6 is routinely tested for its ability to enzymatically cleave these two substrates Ac-VEID-pNA or Ac-VEID-AFC (ABIN412383). 
8保存和稳定性Storage&Stability:
Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycle.Store at 2-8℃ for delivery and store at -20 or -70℃ for future use. The loss rate of the target protein which describes the stability was determined by accelerated thermal degradation test.That is to incubate the protein at 37℃ for 48h and no obvious degradation and precipitation were observed.The loss of this protein is less than 5% within the expiration date under appropriate storage condition.
