| AT1G16420 | metacaspase 8 (MC8); CONTAINS InterPro DOMAIN/s: Peptidase C14, caspase catalytic (InterPro:IPR011600); BEST Arabidopsis thaliana protein match is: metacaspase 7 (TAIR:AT1G79310.1); Has 1067 Blast hits to 1064 proteins in 261 species: Archae - 3; Bacteria - 286; Metazoa - 0; Fungi - 258; Plants - 304; Viruses - 0; Other Eukaryotes - 216 (source: NCBI BLink). metacaspase 8 Encodes a metacaspase (cysteine-type endopeptidase) that is involved in promoting programmed cell death in response to hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), UV light, and methyl viologen (MV). Transcript levels rise in response to UV-C, H2O2, and MV. In vitro assays demonstrate that this enzyme has a preference for cleaving after an arginine residue, and it has a pH optimum of 8.0. | 1 | - | View |
