Caspase proteolysis of the integrin beta4 subunit disrupts hemidesmosome assembly, promotes apoptosis, and inhibits cell migration

Caspases are a conserved family of cell death proteases that cleave intracellular substrates at Asp residues to modify their function and promote apoptosis. In this report we identify the integrin beta4 subunit as a novel caspase substrate using an expression cloning strategy. Together with its alph...
