Target Details for Caspase 1

Target: Caspase 1 (CASP1)

Alternative Name: Caspase-1

Background: Caspases are a family of cysteine proteases that are key mediators of programmed cell death or apoptosis. The precursor form of all caspases is composed of a prodomain, and large and small catalytic subunits. The active forms of caspases are generated by several stimuli including ligand-receptor interactions, growth factor deprivation and inhibitors of cellular functions. All known caspases require cleavage adjacent to aspartates to liberate one large and one small subunit, which associate into a2b2 tetramer to form the active enzyme. Caspase 1 is similar to the cell death gene CED3 of C. elegans and regulates multiple proinflammatory cytokines, including Interleukin 1b and interferon-gamma-inducing factor. Caspase 1 plays a role down stream of Caspase 8 which is involved in Fas-mediated apoptosis.Synonyms: CASP-1, CASP1, ICE, IL1BC, IL1BCE, Interleukin-1 beta convertase, Interleukin-1 beta-converting enzyme, p45
