This zymogen has a molecular mass of approximately 34 kDa and is primarily expressed in the cytosol of cells. It undergoes proteolytic cleavage to become active caspase-7 an important step for executing apoptosis. This conversion allows it to cleave specific substrates leading to cell dismantling. Researchers often refer to it by its other names such as CMH-1 or ICE-LAP3 in scientific literature.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nPro Caspase-7 is intricately involved in the execution phase of apoptosis. It is a component of a multiprotein complex known as the apoptosome which assembles in response to apoptotic signals. Within this complex pro Caspase-7 undergoes activation and subsequently cleaves various cellular proteins. This action results in the characteristic apoptotic changes like DNA fragmentation and membrane blebbing. Its activity is important in maintaining tissue homeostasis and ensuring the removal of damaged cells.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nPro Caspase-7 is deeply integrated into the intrinsic and extrinsic apoptotic pathways. In the intrinsic pathway it operates downstream of mitochondrial signals alongside caspase-3 another executioner caspase. The extrinsic pathway involves the death receptor-mediated signals where caspase-8 can indirectly activate pro Caspase-7. These pathways illustrate interconnectivity often involving cross-activation of caspases guaranteeing efficient cell death regulation.\u003cbr\u003e\nDysregulation of pro Caspase-7 activity links to cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. In cancer underactive pro Caspase-7 results in reduced apoptosis aiding in uncontrolled cell proliferation. Conversely overactivation of pro Caspase-7 is implicated in neurodegenerative disorders like Alzheimer's disease due to excessive apoptosis. Its interactions with proteins such as BCL-2 in cancer and Tau in Alzheimer's illustrate its role in disease pathology.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46850212167849,"sku":"ab32067","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/abcam-ab32067","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
