Casp3 - caspase 3 Gene
Also Known as Lice; Yama; CPP32-beta
Species: Rattus norvegicus
About Casp3
This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 334 orthologues, 12 paralogues and is associated with 107 phenotypes. Biased expression in Thymus (RPKM 222.5), Spleen (RPKM 187.9) and 9 other tissues.
Summary
Enables several functions, including death receptor binding activity; Phospholipase A2 activator activity; and protease binding activity. Involved in several processes, including luteolysis; nervous system development; and positive regulation of amyloid-beta formation. Located in cytosol; membrane raft; and neuronal cell body. Part of death-inducing signaling complex. Used to study artery disease (multiple); brain disease (multiple); and pre-malignant neoplasm. Biomarker of several diseases, including artery disease (multiple); brain disease (multiple); diabetes mellitus (multiple); heart disease (multiple); and pancreatitis (multiple). Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Parkinson's disease; colon cancer; lung non-small cell carcinoma; and stomach Cancer. Orthologous to human CASP3 (Caspase 3).
