Characterization of the Drosophila caspase, DAMM.

The Journal of biological chemistry - 6 Jul 2001

Harvey N L, Daish T, Mills K, Dorstyn L, Quinn L M, Read S H, Richardson H, Kumar S

Abstract excerpt

Caspases are main effectors of apoptosis in metazoans. Genome analysis indicates that there are seven caspases in Drosophila, six of which have been previously characterized. Here we describe the cloning and characterization of the last Drosophila caspase, DAMM. Similar to mammalian effector casp...
