ASC Small Molecules and Peptides

ASC contains an N-terminal Pyrin domain and C-terminal CARD (Caspase-recruitment Domain), and is a p53 target protein that serves as an adaptor to the pro-apoptotic Bax molecule. The interaction of ASC with Bax promotes apoptosis in response to many apoptotic stimuli. Methylation of the ASC gene has been correlated with decreased protein expression...
