Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 838
Gene name Caspase 5
Gene symbol CASP5
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
ICE(rel)IIIICEREL-IIIICH-3
Chromosome 11
Chromosome location 11q22.3
Summary This gene encodes 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

Protein name Caspase-5 (CASP-5) (EC 3.4.22.58) (ICE(rel)-III) (Protease ICH-3) (Protease TY) [Cleaved into: Caspase-5 subunit p20; Caspase-5 subunit p10]
Protein function Thiol protease that acts as a mediator of programmed cell death (PubMed:28314590, PubMed:29898893). Initiates pyroptosis, a programmed lytic cell death pathway through cleavage of Gasdermin-D (GSDMD): cleavage releases the N-terminal gasdermin m
