Abstract
The inhibitor of apoptosis (IAP) gene family prevents cell death by binding to and inhibiting caspases. In addition to negatively regulating apoptosis, IAPs bind to signaling intermediates and receptors, and participate in diverse cellular functions. Here, we describe the physiological functions of IAPs and their participation in injury and disease processes.Entities:
