A new member of a family of ICE-like cysteine proteases has been identified. The protease family is termed LICE (Like ICE) and the family member described herein is LICE3. LICE3 polypeptides, nucleic acids encoding LICE3 and vectors and host cells for the expression LICE3 are disclosed. Also disclosed are methods for identifying LICE3 agonists and antagonists, and methods for treatment of disorders characterized by altered apoptosis.

Han identificado a un nuevo miembro de una familia de los proteases del cysteine de ICE-like. La familia del protease se llama los PIOJOS (como el HIELO) y el miembro de la familia descrito adjunto es LICE3. Se divulgan los polipéptidos LICE3, los ácidos nucleic que codifican LICE3 y vectores y las células huesped para la expresión LICE3. También se divulgan los métodos para identificar los agonistas LICE3 y a antagonistas, y los métodos para el tratamiento de los desórdenes caracterizados por apoptosis alterado.
