Crystal structure of CED-3
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 24065769
Function
[CED3_CAEEL] Acts as a cysteine protease in controlling programmed cell death by proteolytically activating or inactivating a substrate protein or proteins, a potential substrate may be ced-4. Alternatively it might directly cause cell death by proteolytically cleaving proteins that are crucial for cell viability.
