Caspasis 1

E Vicipaedia
Caspasis 1 (CASP1), quae erat prima caspasium investigata, tum interleukin-1 beta converting enzyme nominata[1].

Caspasis 1 seu interleukini 1 beta convertasis est enzymum familiae caspasum. Enzymum hoc ex pro-interleukino 1 beta (pro-IL-1ß) interleukinum 1 beta atque ex pro-IL-18 interleukinum 18 (IL-18) velut ex pro-IL-33 interleukinum 33 (IL-33) secat, ut interleukina ex cellula responsum immunitatis liberari possit. Praeterea intra cellulam enzymum nucleasem incitare potest, ut mors cellulae destinetur (pyroptosis)[2]. Genum CASP1 (OMIM: 147678) nominatum in hominibus in chromosomate 11 locatum (11q22.3) est.
