Application
Granzyme B Substrate (Ac-IEPD-AMC) is a fluorogenic substrate for the detection and assay of caspase 8 and granzyme B which is involved in the rapid induction of target cell apoptosis by CTL in cell-mediated immune response.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Granzymes belongs to serine proteinase family enzymes and it localizes along with perforin in granules. It is predominant in cytotoxic T cells. Granzyme B induces caspases dependent and independent cell death. It possesses specific cleavage action at aspartate residue in the substrate.

Cell death induction by cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) is an important thesis for the understanding of tumor immunotherapy. In the current study we investigated the molecular machinery of CTL-induced cell death in human hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines (HCC lines). CTLs

Granzyme B plays an important role in granule-mediated apoptosis by CTL. It is a well characterized component of the cytolytic machinery in mammals and a candidate for the evaluation of cytotoxic activity of CTL as an alternative to conventional cytotoxicity

Cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) are the major killer of virus-infected cells. Granzyme B (GrB) from CTLs induces apoptosis in target cells by cleavage and activation of substrates like caspase-3 and Bid. However, while undergoing apoptosis, cells are still capable of
