additional information | Homo sapiens | The cysteine protease caspase-8 plays an essential role in apoptosis induced by death receptors, caspase-8 mediates mitochondrial release of pro-apoptotic proteins in a manner independent of its proteolytic activity in apoptosis induced by the protein synthesis inhibitor acetoxycycloheximide in human leukemia Jurkat cells. Bid is cleaved not by caspase-8 but by other caspases in Ac-CHX-treated cells and is not involved in mitochondrial release of proapoptotic proteins | ? | - |
