LEVD-CHO, Cell-permeable; sequence Lyophilized powder. A potent, cell-permeable, and reversible inhibitor of caspase-4. The N-terminal sequence (amino acid residues 1-16) corresponds to the hydrophobic region of the signal peptide of Kaposi fibroblast growth factor and confers cell permeability to the peptide. Purity: ≥95% by HPLC. Ac-Ala-Ala-Val-Ala-Leu-Leu-Pro-Ala-Val-Leu-Leu-Ala-Leu-Leu-Ala-Pro-Leu-Glu-Val-Asp-CHO Ref.: Thornberry, N.A., and Lazebnik, Y. 1998. Science 281, 1312. |
