Descriptor caspasa 1
Entry term(s) CASP1
enzima convertidora de la IL-1 beta
enzima convertidora de la interleucina 1 beta
procaspasa 1
proteasa ICE
Scope note: Caspasa de prodominio largo con especificidad por la forma precursora de la INTERLEUCINA 1 BETA. Interviene en la INFLAMACIÓN convirtiendo catalíticamente las formas inactivas de las CITOCINAS, como la interleucina 1 beta, en su forma activa segregada. La caspasa 1 se denomina también enzima convertidora de la interleucina 1 beta y con frecuencia se abrevia como ICE.

Scope note: A long pro-domain caspase that has specificity for the precursor form of INTERLEUKIN-1BETA. It plays a role in INFLAMMATION by catalytically converting the inactive forms of CYTOKINES such as interleukin-1beta to their active, secreted form. Caspase 1 is referred as interleukin-1beta converting enzyme and is frequently abbreviated ICE.
