ABSTRACT:
The ability to determine the stage or pathway of cysteine proteases in a single cell assay has long been desired as a material event in apoptosis. The present invention relates to a method and assay reagents for determining enzyme activity and relating said activity to the apoptotic pathway. In addition, the method find utility in distinguishing apoptotic activity from necrotic activity.
