Generic protein structure example

Caspase-10 is an enzyme that, in humans, is encoded by the CASP10 gene.[1]

This gene encodes a protein that is a member of the cysteine-aspartic acid protease (caspase) family. Sequential activation of caspases plays a central role in the execution-phase of cell apoptosis. Caspases exist as inactive proenzymes that undergo proteolytic processing at conserved aspartic residues to produce two subunits, large and small, that dimerize to form the active enzyme.

That protein cleaves and activates caspases 3 and 7, and the protein itself is processed by caspase 8. Mutations in this gene are associated with apoptosis defects seen in type II autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome. Three alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene.[2]

Interactions

Caspase 10 has been shown to interact with FADD,[3][4][5] CFLAR,[4][6][7] Caspase 8,[8][9][10] Fas receptor,[8][3][11] RYBP,[12] TNFRSF1A[8][3] and TNFRSF10B.[8][11]
