Abstract
The invention provides methods and compositions relating to human polypeptide activators of caspases such as polypeptide and polynucleotide sequences diagnostic of caspase activators. These sequences and polypeptides and polynucleotides embodying these sequences find a wide vanety of diagnostic and therapeutic applications involving detecting and/or modulating expression and/or function of activators or caspases or genes or transcripts encoding such activators and generating genetic and immuno probes specific to activators of caspases.
