Target Details for Caspase 2

Target: Caspase 2 (CASP2) (Caspase 2, Apoptosis-Related Cysteine Peptidase (CASP2))

Alternative Name: Caspase-2

Background: Caspase-2, which is involved in stress-induced apoptosis, is recruited into a large protein complex, the molecular composition of which remains elusive. activation of caspase-2 occurs in a complex that contains the death domain-containing protein PIDD, whose expression is induced by p53, and the adaptor protein RAIDD. Increased PIDD expression resulted in spontaneous activation of caspase-2 and sensitization to apoptosis by genotoxic stimuli. Caspase-2 acts both as a positive and negative cell death effector, depending upon cell lineage and stage of development.Synonyms: CASP-2, CASP2, ICH-1 protease, ICH1, NEDD2, Neural precursor cell expressed developmentally down-regulated protein 2
