Quantitative analysis of fluorescent caspase substrate cleavage in intact cells and identification of novel inhibitors of apoptosis

Caspase activation and proteolytic cleavage of specific target proteins represents an integral step in the pathway leading to the apoptotic death of cells. Analysis of caspase activity in intact cells, however, has been generally limited to the measurement of end-point biochemical and morphological...
