Caspases are death effector domain-containing cysteine aspartases presumed to be at or near the apex of apoptotic signaling pathways.
All known isoforms of caspase-10 are abundantly expressed in fetal lung, kidney, and skeletal muscle but are very poorly expressed or absent in these tissues in the adult, implying a possible role for the caspase-10 family in fetal development.
Caspase-10 belongs to DED (death effector domain) containing caspases and functions as an initiator caspase in Fas/TNF induced apoptosis (1).
Four isoforms of caspase-10 have been identified: caspase-10a (Mch4), caspase-10b (FLICE2), caspase-10c and caspase-10d.
They have the same prodomain but different mature large and small subdomains (2–4).
Upon death ligand–receptor binding, caspase-10 is coupled to the multimeric Fas/TNF receptor complex via DED/FADD adaptor interaction (1–4).
This complex processes procaspase-10 into a large active subunit and a small subunit.
Cleaved caspase-10 further processes other caspase members, including caspase-3 and caspase-7, to initiate a caspase cascade, leading to programmed cell death (3–6).
