General Information of Binding Target of SBP (BTS) (ID: ST00122)
BTS Name
Caspase-2
Synonyms
CASP-2; EC 3.4.22.55; Neural precursor cell expressed developmentally down-regulated protein 2; NEDD-2; Protease ICH-1
BTS Type
Protein
Family
Peptidase C14A family
Gene Name
CASP2
Organism
Homo sapiens (Human)
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 Associates with PIDD1 and CRADD to form the PIDDosome, a complex that activates CASP2 and triggers apoptosis in response to genotoxic stress
