Evolutionary Diversity and Function of Metacaspases in Plants: Similar to but Not Caspases
Caspase is a well-studied metazoan protease involved in programmed cell death and immunity in animals. Obviously, homologues of caspases with evolutionarily similar sequences and functions should exist in plants, and yet, they do not exist in plants. Plants contain structural homologues of caspases...
