Caspase-2 is the most specific protease of all caspases and therefore highly suitable as tag removal enzyme creating an authentic N-terminus of overexpressed tagged proteins of interest. The wild type human caspase-2 is a dimer of heterodimers generated by autocatalytic processing which is required for its enzymatic activity. We designed a circularly permuted caspase-2 (cpCasp2) to overcome the drawback of complex recombinant expression, purification and activation, cpCasp2 was constitutively active and expressed as a single chain pro
