Summary: Enables cysteine-type peptidase activity; endopeptidase activity; and protease binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to hydrogen peroxide; positive regulation of striated muscle cell apoptotic process; and protein autoprocessing. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum. Predicted to be part of NLRP1 inflammasome complex. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Used to study sciatic neuropathy. Biomarker of several diseases, including diabetes mellitus (multiple); heart disease (multiple); neurodegenerative disease (multiple); post-traumatic stress disorder; and ureteral obstruction. Orthologous to human CASP12 (caspase 12 (gene/pseudogene)). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
