Did you mean caspase 3?

GlossaryCaspase-3

enzyme that plays a key role in programmed cell death

Caspase-3 is a crucial enzyme in the process of apoptosis, which is the programmed cell death that helps maintain healthy tissue by removing damaged or unnecessary cells. Often referred to as the "executioner" caspase, it plays a key role in dismantling cellular components during apoptosis, ensuring that cells die in a controlled manner without causing harm to surrounding tissues.
