Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
CASP-12CASP12P1
Chromosome 11
Chromosome location 11q22.3
Summary Caspases are cysteine proteases that cleave C-terminal aspartic acid residues on their substrate molecules. This gene is most highly related to members of the ICE subfamily of caspases that process inflammatory cytokines. In rodents, the homolog of this g
