Bruce suppresses autophagy-regulated caspase activity and wing tissue growth in <i>Drosophila</i>

Caspases are cysteine-aspartic proteases that mediate both lethal and non-lethal cellular outcomes, including the promotion of tissue growth. However, the mechanisms underlying the differential regulation of these activities remain unclear. We have previously shown that among the two Drosophila executioner caspases, Dcp-1 and Drice, Dcp-1 promotes tissue growth in a non-lethal manner, independent…
