Regulating Apoptosis by Degradation: The N-End Rule-Mediated Regulation of Apoptotic Proteolytic Fragments in Mammalian Cells
- Mohamed A. Eldeeb, R. Fahlman, M. Esmaili, Mohamed A Ragheb
- Chemistry, Medicine
- International journal of molecular sciences
- 31 October 2018
A pivotal hallmark of some cancer cells is the evasion of apoptotic cell death. Importantly, the initiation of apoptosis often results in the activation of caspases, which, in turn, culminates in the… Expand
