Introduction | Caspase-2 is a protein which belongs to the cysteine-aspartic acid protease (caspase) family. Sequential activation of caspases has a central role in the execution-phase of cell apoptosis. Caspases exist as inactive proenzymes which undergo proteolytic processing at conserved aspartic residues to produce two subunits, large and small, that dimerize to form the active enzyme. The proteolytic cleavage of Caspase-2 is induced by a variety of apoptotic stimuli. |
Clone | P1C10AT. |
