Specifications
Target Information
Chicken CYCS, or cytochrome c, is a vital component of the mitochondrial respiratory chain, where it participates in the transfer of electrons during cellular respiration. Beyond its role in energy production, cytochrome c is also a key player in the regulation of apoptosis. In response to certain cellular stresses, cytochrome c is released from the mitochondria into the cytosol, where it binds to Apaf-1, leading to the formation of the apoptosome. This complex activates caspases, particularly Caspase 9, which in turn initiates the downstream caspase cascade that executes the apoptotic program.
