Reactivity
Human, Monkey
(tested or 100% immunogen sequence identity)
Immunogen
Purified human Granzyme B.
Specificity
Recognizes the serine protease Granzyme B, which is expressed within the granules of cytolytic lymphocytes (CTLs). Granzyme B plays a key role in the induction of apoptosis by CTLs. After delivery to the target cell Granzyme B activates the cascade of caspases that finally results in cell death. Species cross-reactivity: Human, rhesus monkey, chimpanzee.
