Induction of apoptosis by the mouse Nedd2 gene, which encodes a protein similar to the product of the Caenorhabditis elegans cell death gene ced-3 and the mammalian IL-1 beta-converting enzyme.
Open accessAbstract
By subtraction cloning we previously identified a set of mouse genes (named Nedd1 through Nedd10) with developmentally down-regulated expression in brain. We now show that one such gene, Nedd2, encodes a protein similar to the mammalian interleukin-1 beta-converting enzyme (ICE) and the product of the Caenorhabditis elegans cell death gene ced-3 (CED-3). Both ICE and CED-3 are known to encode putative cysteine proteases and induce apoptosis when overexpressed in cultured cells. Overexpression of Nedd2 in cultured fibroblast and neuroblastoma cells also resulted in cell death by apoptosis, which was suppressed by the expression of the human bcl-2 gene, indicating that Nedd2 is functionally similar to the ced-3 gene in C. elegans. We also show that during embryonic development, Nedd2 is highly expressed in several types of mouse tissue undergoing high rates of programmed cell death such as central nervous system and kidney. Our data suggest that Nedd2 is an important component of the mammalian programmed cell death machinery.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
