Description | Caspase-6 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the CASP6 gene. Caspase-6 has known functions in apoptosis, early immune response and neurodegenration in Huntington's and Alzheimer's disease. Caspase-6 is a member of the cysteine-aspartic acid protease (caspase) family. Caspase-6 plays a role in the early immune response via de-repression. It reduces the expression of the immunosuppressant cytokine interleukin-10 and cleaves the macrophage suppressing IRAK-M. With respect to neurodegeneration, caspase-6 cleaves HTT in Huntington's and APP in Alzheimer's disease. Alternative splicing of this gene results in two transcript variants that encode different isoforms. |
