Induction of Apoptotic Program in Cell-Free Extracts: Requirement for dATP and Cytochrome c
Open accessAbstract
A cell-free system based on cytosols of normally growing cells is established that reproduces aspects of the apoptotic program in vitro. The apoptotic program is initiated by addition of dATP. Fractionation of cytosol yielded a 15 kDa protein that is required for in vitro apoptosis. The absorption spectrum and protein sequence revealed that this protein is cytochrome c. Elimination of cytochrome c from cytosol by immunodepletion, or inclusion of sucrose to stabilize mitochondria during cytosol preparation, diminished the apoptotic activity. Adding back cytochrome c to the cytochrome c-depleted extracts restored their apoptotic activity. Cells undergoing apoptosis in vivo showed increased release of cytochrome c to their cytosol, suggesting that mitochondria may function in apoptosis by releasing cytochrome c.

In the citing paper
“MOMP directly promotes the cytosolic release of apoptogenic factors that normally reside in the mitochondrial intermembrane space [40, 44, 156]. These mitochondrial proteins include (but are not limited to) cytochrome c, somatic (CYCS), which usually operates as an electron shuttle in the mitochondrial respiratory chain [157–160], and diablo IAP-binding mitochondrial protein (DIABLO; also known as”

In the citing paper
“If the pathological threshold is crossed, the electron transfer chain is disrupted, reactive oxygen species accumulate, the permeability transition pore opens, the outer mitochondrial membrane ruptures, cytochrome c is released, and an apoptotic cell death program is activated [86,109].”
From Parvalbumin interneuron vulnerability and brain disorders (2021) · cites this paper as [86]
In the citing paper
“A substantial quantity of cytochrome c and cytochrome c oxidase supports the high bioenergetic needs of PV-INs [81,85], but comes at a price as cytochrome c is also central to the induction of apoptosis [86].”
From Parvalbumin interneuron vulnerability and brain disorders (2021) · cites this paper as [86]
In the citing paper
“A key event in this process involves mitochondrial outer membrane permeabilization (MOMP) and the remodeling of mitochondrial membranes, permitting the release of apoptogenic factors such as cytochrome c (Liu et al., 1996) and apoptosis-inducing factor (AIF) (Susin et al., 1999) from the intermembrane space into the cytosol (Kroemer et al., 2007).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
