    sis signaling and execution

    ajor pathways of apoptosis initiation (extrinsic, intrinsicn/granzyme) converge on a common execution mech-

    degradation of chromosomal DNA and nuclear andl proteins. Both steps in this process involve caspases; asteine-dependent aspartate-directed proteases consti-ressed as zymogens. Caspases operate in a cascade forduction of apoptosis, which is energy-dependent butt of transcription [14]. Initiator caspases-8, -9, and -10d by dimerization following recruitment to signaling(Sections 2.1.1 and 2.1.2) [15].

    be mediated by proteases other than initiator caspases.

    sic apoptosisinsic pathway begins with ligand binding to tumortor receptor (TNFR) family proteins containing a deathheir cytoplasmic tail which serves as the site for signalrmation [16]. The receptor/ligand pairs most relevantNF-/TNFR1 and Fas ligand/Fas [17,18]. TNF- bind-zes TNFR1 allowing recruitment of TNFR1-associatedin (TRADD), receptor interacting protein kinase (RIPK)1,iated factor (TRAF)2, TRAF5, cellular inhibitor of apo-in (cIAP) 1, and cIAP2 to form membrane-associatedSignals from complex I activate NFB that upregu-rvival genes [19].
