Abstract excerpt
The role of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (IP(3)R) in caspase-3 activation and cell death was investigated in DT40 chicken B-lymphocytes stably expressing various IP(3)R constructs. Both full-length type-I IP(3)R and a truncated construct corresponding to the caspase-3 cleaved "channel-only" fragment were able to support staurosporine (STS)-induced caspase-3 activation and cell death even when the IP(3)R...
