Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 23581
Gene name Caspase 14
Gene symbol CASP14
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
ARCI12caspase-14
Chromosome 19
Chromosome location 19p13.12
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
