A Structural Model for Bax∆2-Mediated Activation of Caspase 8-Dependent Apoptosis

Bax∆2 is a pro-apoptotic anti-tumor protein in the Bax family. While most of the Bax family causes cell death by targeting mitochondria, Bax∆2 forms cytosolic aggregates and activates caspase 8-dependent cell death. We previously showed that the Bax∆2 helix α9 is critical for caspase 8 recruitment....
