Teaching resources. Apoptosis.
This teaching resource provides lecture notes and slides for a class covering apoptosis and is part of the course "Cell signaling systems: a course for graduate students." The lecture contains a discussion of the apoptosis genes in Caenorhabditis elegans, the properties of the caspases, the major components of the extrinsic apoptotic signal transduction pathway, and the major components of the intrinsic (mitochondrial) apoptotic pathway.
