Crystal Structure of mutant form of Caspase-7

Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 23897474

Function

[CASP7_HUMAN] Involved in the activation cascade of caspases responsible for apoptosis execution. Cleaves and activates sterol regulatory element binding proteins (SREBPs). Proteolytically cleaves poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) at a '216-Asp-|-Gly-217' bond. Overexpression promotes programmed cell death.

About this Structure
