Activity Regulation
Binding Site
Calcium Binding
catalytic Activity CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: Reaction=Strict requirement for an Asp residue at P1, with 316-asp being essential for proteolytic activity and has a preferred cleavage sequence of Val-Asp-Val-Ala-Asp-|-.; EC=3.4.22.55;
DNA Binding
EC Number 3.4.22.55
Enzyme Function FUNCTION: Involved in the activation cascade of caspases responsible for apoptosis execution. Might function by either activating some proteins required for cell death or inactivating proteins necessary for cell survival (PubMed:15073321). Associates with PIDD1 and CRADD to form the PIDDosome, a complex that activates CASP2 and triggers apoptosis in response to genotoxic stress (PubMed:15073321). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15073321}.
