Abstract
⺠We describe the role of mitochondria in caspase-8 signalling. ⺠Polyubiquitination of caspase-8 at the DISC modulates its activation. ⺠The cardiolipin enriched “mitosome” is a new activation platform for caspase-8. ⺠MTCH2/MIMP facilitates the recruitment of active tBid to the mitochondria. ⺠The type I/type II cell discrimination is also due to differences on XIAP levels.
