Forms of Caspase-7

• Caspase-7 bound to dead-end substrate mimic DEVD-CHO, trapping protein in active/substrate bound conformation.
• Caspase-7 bound to allosteric inhibitor DICA through CYS290 trapping protein in a form incompatible with substrate binding.
• Conformational change between substrate bound and substrate incompatible forms of Caspase-7

Molecular Playground banner: Conformational Dynamics between active and allosterically inhibited caspase-7 elucidate the mechanism of allostery in this important class of cysteine proteases.
