Death regulator Nedd2-like caspase |
| Gene Summary |
Enables cysteine-type endopeptidase activity involved in apoptotic signaling pathway and protein homodimerization activity. Involved in several processes, including positive regulation of cell death; positive regulation of cysteine-type endopeptidase activity involved in apoptotic process; and programmed cell death involved in cell development. Located in cytoplasm; nucleus; and plasma membrane. Part of apoptosome. Is expressed in several structures, including extended germ band embryo; eye disc; foregut primordium; germline cyst; and gut section. Used to study testicular cancer. Orthologous to human CASP2 (caspase 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022] |
