This is the structure for Caspase 7 with substrate bound. Caspase 7 is a Cysteine dependent protease that cleaves after ASPartate residues. The substrate here is the peptide DEVD. Caspase 7 plays a critical role in apoptosis as an initiator that cleaves downstream targets.

All caspases are zymogens. In the case of Casp7, this means that there is a prodomain that, when attached, renders the protein inactive. However, this prodomain is easily cleaved off, thus activating Casp7 as a protease.
