Swiss-port # O54786 Mouse DNA fragmentation factor subunit alpha |
|---|---|
| Gene Symbol | Dffa |
| Gene Full Name | DNA fragmentation factor, alpha subunit |
| Background | A human DNA fragmentation factor (DFF) that is cleaved by caspase-3 during apoptosis was identified recently. The mouse homologue of human DFF was identified as a DNase inhibitor and was designated ICAD (inhibitor of caspase-activated DNase). Upon cleavage of DFF/ICAD, a caspase activated deoxyribonuclease (CAD) is released and activated and eventually causes the degradation of DNA in nuclei. Therefore, cleavage of CAD inhibitor molecule DFF/ICAD, which causes DNase activation and DNA degradation, is a hallmark of apoptotic cell death. |
| Function | Inhibitor of the caspase-activated DNase (DFF40). [UniProt] |
| Research Area | Cell Biology and Cellular Response antibody; Cell Death antibody; Gene Regulation antibody; Metabolism antibody |
| Calculated MW | 37 kDa |
| PTM | Caspase-3 cleaves DFF45 at 2 sites to generate an active factor. |
