A non-death role of the yeast metacaspase: Yca1p alters cell cycle dynamics.

PloS one - 13 Aug 2008

Lee Robin E C, Puente Lawrence G, Kaern Mads, Megeney Lynn A

Abstract excerpt

Caspase proteases are a conserved protein family predominantly known for engaging and executing apoptotic cell death. Nevertheless, in higher eukaryotes, caspases also influence a variety of cell behaviors including differentiation, proliferation and growth control. S. cerevisiae expresses a primordial caspase, yca1, and exhibits apoptosis-like death under certain stresses; however, the benefit of a dedicated...
