MeSH Heading: Caspase 8
Tree Number(s): D08.811.277.656.262.500.126.550.800; D08.811.277.656.300.200.126.550.800; D12.776.157.057.018.037; D12.776.476.024.320.025; D12.776.476.075.405.550.800; D12.776.476.075.421.037
Unique ID: D053181
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D053181
Scope Note: A long pro-domain caspase that contains a death effector domain in its pro-domain region. Caspase 8 plays a role in APOPTOSIS by cleaving and activating EFFECTOR CASPASES. Activation of this enzyme can occur via the interaction of its N-terminal death effector domain with DEATH DOMAIN RECEPTOR SIGNALING ADAPTOR PROTEINS.
Entry Term(s): CAP4 Protease; Caspase-8; FLICE Protein; MACH Protein; Mch5 Protease; Pro-Caspase-8; Procaspase-8
