Description

A cell-permeable pentapeptide derived from the Ku70-Bax inhibiting domain that has been shown to offer protection against apoptosis in cells of human, mouse, rant, and porcine origin. Reported to function as effectively as the caspase inhibitor, Z-VAD-FMK (Caspase Inhibitor VI, Cat. No. 219007) for Bax-mediated apoptosis (~50-200 µ,M). Also reported to effectively block caspase-independent necrotic cell death. Shown to interact with Bax in a Ku70-competitive manner and prevent its conformational change and mitochondrial translocation. Displays extended stability in culture medium (~3 days)., A cell-permeable pentapeptide based on the Ku70-Bax inhibiting domain that offers cytoprotection.
