FLIP Proteins and Enzymes

FLIP (Flice-like Inhibitory Protein), also known as I-FLICE, CASPER, and FLAME-1, is an apoptosis inhibitory protein with architecture similar to that of Caspases-8 and -10. Both of the FLIP isoforms, Long (L) and Short (S), contain two death effector domains (DED). FLIP(L) has a C-terminal Caspase-like protease domain which lacks both a catalytic ...
