✦ Synopsis


Farnesyltransferase catalyzes the posttranslational modification of numerous proteins involved in intracellular signal transduction by transferring the farnesyl residue of farnesyl pyrophosphate to the thiol of a cysteine side chain of the protein substrate. The cysteine residue belongs to a characteristic carboxy-terminal consensus sequence, the so-called

Interleukin-1b-converting enzyme (ICE) is a cysteine protease responsible for proteolytic activation of the biologically inactive interleukin-1b precursor to the proinflammatory cytokine. ICE and homologous proteases also appear to mediate intracellular protein degradation during programmed cell dea
