“Caspase-8 is the key initiator caspase in the death-receptor pathway. Upon ligand
binding, death receptors such as CD95 (Apo-1/Fas) aggregate and form membranebound signalling complexes (Box 3). These complexes then recruit, through adapter
proteins, several molecules of procaspase-8, resulting in a high local concentration of
zymogen. The induced proximity model posits that under these crowded conditions, the
low intrinsic protease activity of procaspase-8 (ref. 20) is sufficient to allow the various
proenzyme molecules to mutually cleave and activate each other (Box 2). A similar
mechanism of action has been proposed to mediate the activation of several other
caspases, including caspase-2 and the nematode caspase CED-3 (ref. 21).”

Exercise 2
From the homepage, search for ‘Notch signaling’.
Click on the top pathway hit. This will open it in the Pathway Browser.
Ignoring the diagram for now, look at the Pathways tab on the left.
1. How many sub-pathways does this pathway have?
2. How many reactions are in the first of these sub-pathways?
3. What reaction follows Notch 2 precursor transport to Golgi?
Hint: If it’s not visible, open the Details pane at the bottom of the
page by clicking on the blue triangle.

Exercise 6
Check this!
1. What is the most significantly over-represented top-level pathway for this
dataset?
2. How many genes are in this pathway, and how many were represented in the
dataset?
3. Why is the top-level pathway Chromosome Maintenance higher in the list
than Signalling by Wnt when the latter has a more significant probability
score? (Hint – use the Open All button)
4. Can you interpret these results in terms of the underlying biology? (Hint:
good luck, there are many correct answers!)
