EC Number 3.4.22.60
Enzyme Function FUNCTION: Involved in the activation cascade of caspases responsible for apoptosis execution. Cleaves and activates sterol regulatory element binding proteins (SREBPs). Overexpression promotes programmed cell death (By similarity). Cleaves phospholipid scramblase proteins XKR4, XKR8 and XKR9 (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P55210, ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P97864}.

Post Translational Modification PTM: Cleavages by granzyme B or caspase-10 generate the two active subunits. Propeptide domains can also be cleaved efficiently by caspase-3. Active heterodimers between the small subunit of caspase-7 and the large subunit of caspase-3, and vice versa, also occur (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
