The cell death protease caspase-2 has recently been recognized as the most apical caspase in the apoptotic cascade ignited during cell stress signaling. Cytotoxic stress, such as that caused by cancer therapies, leads to activation of caspase-2, which acts as

Caspase-3, -6 and -7 cleave many proteins at specific sites to induce apoptosis. Their recognition of the P5 position in substrates has been investigated by kinetics, modeling and crystallography. Caspase-3 and -6 recognize P5 in pentapeptides as shown by enzyme
