Gene Symbol CASP2
Gene Full Name caspase 2
Background Caspases play a key role in apoptosis. Similar as other caspases, caspase-2 is also synthesized as an inactive pro-enzyme that is processed in cells undergoing apoptosis. Caspase-2 mRNA is alternatively spliced. The larger mRNA species encoding a product of 435 amino acids is known as ICH-1L. The smaller mRNA species encoding a protein of 312 amino acids is named ICH-1S. Over expression of ICH-1L induces apoptosis, while over expression of ICH-1S suppresses Rat-1 cell death induced by serum deprivation.
Function Involved in the activation cascade of caspases responsible for apoptosis execution. Might function by either activating some proteins required for cell death or inactivating proteins necessary for cell survival. May be important in multistep carcinogenesis. [UniProt]
