Peptide-fluoromethyl ketone inhibitor of caspases. The CH2F (fluoromethyl ketone) inhibitor has several advantages over other types of derivatives: Penetrates cell membranes, Not toxic to cells, Irreversible inhibition Available data (reference 1) indicates that FMK inhibitors based on the sequence AEVD will inactivate caspases-6, 8, 9, and to a lesser extent caspases-1 and 3. Caspases-2, 4, 5, 7, and 10 will be little affected. Dissolve the Caspase-13 Inhibitor in DMSO before use. It is important that dry, good quality DMSO be used.
