Fig. 5

Comparison of cell-free caspase-3 activation by horse, human and R. arrhizus cyt c. Caspase-3 activation was followed at 405 nm and normalized to the horse cyt c signal. rRA represents the recombinant and nRA the native cyt c from R. arrhizus, while AspII represents the negative control contains asparaginase-II (no cyt c). Each column represents the mean of independent measurements, with error bars representing the standard deviation. The initial incubation to activate caspase was performed with samples at 10 μM final concentration. The native cyt c signal (*) was significantly different from the others (P < 0.05)
