The present invention encompasses a compound of Formula (I) useful as caspase active site probes. These probes can be used to determine whether a caspase has been activated, in cells or in tissues of animal models of various pathologies. Furthermore, through competition based assays, these caspase active site probes can be used to calculate the percentage of occupancy of active caspases by other, unlabeled inhibitors.
本发明涵盖了一种化合物,其
化学式为(I),可作为caspase活性位点探针。这些探针可用于确定细胞或各种病理动物模型的组织中是否已激活caspase。此外,通过基于竞争的分析,这些caspase活性位点探针可用于计算其他未标记
抑制剂对活性caspase的占有率百分比。
