Abstract

Apoptosis in metazoans is executed by a group of intracellular proteases named caspases. One of the caspase-activating pathways in mammals is initiated by the release of cytochrome c from mitochondria to cytosol, where it binds to Apaf-1 to form a procaspase-9-activating heptameric protein complex named apoptosome. We report here the reconstitution of this pathway with purified recombinant Apaf-1, procaspase-9, procaspase-3, and cytochrome c from horse heart. Apaf-1 contains a dATP as a cofactor. Cytochrome c binding to Apaf-1 induces hydrolysis of dATP to dADP, which is subsequently replaced by exogenous dATP. The dATP hydrolysis and exchange on Apaf-1 are two required steps for apoptosome formation.

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.
