Yhteenveto: | Apoptosis, programmed cell death, has a central role in developmental biology and in maintaining the equilibrium of renewing tissues. A founding member of the Bcl-2 family of regulatory proteins for apoptosis is Bcl-2, which is encoded by the <i>BCL2</i> gene. Caspase-3 shares typical features with all caspases, including the role of acting as a crucial mediator of apoptosis. |
