Rabbit polyclonal to NALP1Death Effector Filament-forming Ced 4 like Apoptosis Protein (DEFCAP) is a novel apoptotic protein of the mammalian Ced 4 family. It has two isoforms: DEFCAP-Land DEFCAP-S. The deduced amino acid sequences of these two alternately spliced isoforms only differ by 44amino acids at the C-terminus. DEFCAP contains a caspase recruitment domain (CARD), a domain that with the proper stimulation can recruit caspases to form cytoplasmic structures called death effector filaments, which in turn initiate the apoptotic signaling pathway. |
