'''Caspase''' (CASP) are cysteine-aspartic proteases (see [[Protease]]) which function in apoptosis, necrosis and inflammation. Twelve CASP have been identified in human. CASP is synthesized as an inactive pro-CASP with a prodomain which is being cleaved off to render them active. The X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein (XIAP) with its baculoviral IAP repeat (BIR) domain is an inhibitor of CASP.<br /> | '''Caspase''' (CASP) are cysteine-aspartic proteases (see [[Protease]]) which function in apoptosis, necrosis and inflammation.

The X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein (XIAP) with its baculoviral IAP repeat (BIR) domain is an inhibitor of CASP. The CASP recruitment domain (CARD) mediates signaling events that are associated with various human diseases including cancer, neuro-degenerative diseases and immune disorders<ref>PMID:30664151</ref>.<br /> | ||
