ASC, a Novel 22-kDa Protein, Aggregates during Apoptosis of Human Promyelocytic Leukemia HL-60 Cells
Open accessAbstract
The cytoskeletal and/or nuclear matrix molecules responsible for morphological changes associated with apoptosis were identified using monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). We developed mAbs against Triton X-100-insoluble components of HL-60 cells pretreated with all-trans retinoic acid. In particular, one mAb recognized a 22-kDa protein that exhibited intriguing behavior by forming an aggregate and appearing as a speck during apoptosis induced by retinoic acid and other anti-tumor drugs. Cloning and sequencing of its cDNA revealed that this protein comprises 195 amino acids and that its C-terminal half has a caspase recruitment domain (CARD) motif, characteristic of numerous proteins involved in apoptotic signaling. We referred to this protein as ASC (apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a CARD). The ASC gene was mapped on chromosome 16p11.2-12. The antisense oligonucleotides of ASC were found to reduce the expression of ASC, and consequently, etoposide-mediated apoptosis of HL-60 cells was suppressed. Our results indicate that ASC is a novel member of the CARD-containing adaptor protein family.

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.
