Caspase 9 is a member of the cysteine-aspartic acid protease (caspase) family. Sequential activation of caspases plays a central role in the execution-phase of cell apoptosis. Caspases exist as inactive proenzymes which undergo proteolytic processing at conserved aspartic residues to produce 2 subunits, large and small, that dimerize to form the active enzyme. This protein is processed by caspase APAF1, this step is thought to be one of the earliest in the caspase activation cascade.Synonyms: APAF-3, APAF3, Apoptotic protease Mch-6, Apoptotic protease-activating factor 3, CASP-9, CASP9, ICE-LAP6, ICE-like apoptotic protease 6, MCH6
