General description
A potent, cell-permeable, and irreversible inhibitor of caspase-8 (MACH, FLICE, Mch5). Also inhibits granzyme B.
A potent, cell-permeable, and irreversible inhibitor of caspase-8 and granzyme B. Effectively inhibits influenza virus-induced apoptosis in HeLa cells. Also inhibits granzyme B. When using with purified native or recombinant enzyme, pretreatment with an esterase is required. A 5 mM (250 µg/76 µl) solution of Z-IETD-FMK (Cat. No. 218840) in DMSO is also available.
