Additional info: Granzyme B is a serine protease that is expressed in cytoplasmic granules of cytotoxic T lymphocytes and NK cells. Vectorial secretion of perforin and granzymes is responsible for their granule-mediated cytotoxicity. Granzyme B plays a pivotal role in the induction of apoptosis in the target cells by activation of caspases. Moreover, granzyme B was reported to cleave directly alpha-tubulin, leading to perturbation of microtubule networks during the induced cell death.SpecificityThe mouse monoclonal antibody UW40 recognizes GRAP2/GADS, a 41 kDa cytoplasmic adaptor protein that plays a pivotal role during the early events of signal transduction in T cells.Application detailsFlow cytometry: Recommended dilution: 1-4 μg/ml.
