The enzyme involved in apoptosis
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer:
Option
B
The enzyme involved in apoptosis is Caspases.
Apoptosis is mediated by proteolytic enzymes called caspases, which trigger cell death by cleaving specific proteins in the cytoplasm and nucleus.
Caspases exist in all cells as inactive precursors, or procaspases, which are usually activated by cleavage by other caspases, producing a proteolytic caspase cascade.
