    Summary
    This gene encodes a protein which 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 which undergo proteolytic processing at conserved aspartic residues to produce two subunits, large and small, that dimerize to form the active enzyme. This protein cleaves and activates caspases 3 and 7, and the protein itself is processed by caspase 8. Mutations in this gene are associated with type IIA autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome, non-Hodgkin lymphoma and gastric cancer. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2011]

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.

      Description
      Transcript Variant: This variant (4) lacks an internal coding exon compared to variant 1. This results in a frame-shift and premature translation termination, rendering this transcript a candidate for nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD). However, the encoded truncated isoform (4, also known as caspase-10/c) is represented, as there is published report (PMID:10187817) that shows that although this isoform lacks proteolytic activity in vitro, it efficiently induces the formation of perinuclear filamentous structures and cell death in vivo.
