Question:

What are the five steps of the death receptor pathway

Author: Olive Johnson



Answer:

→ message is received, caspases are activated, contact to neighbouring cells is lost, and messages are sent to phagocytes → cells shrink and blebs (bumps) form of the outside of the cell → caspase enters the nucleus destroying all DNA → organelles other than the nucleus and mitochondria are preserved as the cell is broken down into small fragments which are enclosed by a membrane → fragments bind to phagocytes which engulf them
