==Structure of the apoptotic protease-activating factor 1 bound to ADP==
-
Apoptosis is executed by caspases, which undergo proteolytic activation in, response to cell death stimuli. The apoptotic protease-activating factor 1, (Apaf-1) controls caspase activation downstream of mitochondria. During, apoptosis, Apaf-1 binds to cytochrome c and in the presence of ATP/dATP, forms an apoptosome, leading to the recruitment and activation of the, initiator caspase, caspase-9 (ref. 2). The mechanisms underlying Apaf-1, function are largely unknown. Here we report the 2.2-A crystal structure, of an ADP-bound, WD40-deleted Apaf-1, which reveals the molecular, mechanism by which Apaf-1 exists in an inactive state before ATP binding., The amino-terminal caspase recruitment domain packs against a, three-layered alpha/beta fold, a short helical motif and a winged-helix, domain, resulting in the burial of the caspase-9-binding interface. The, deeply buried ADP molecule serves as an organizing centre to strengthen, interactions between these four adjoining domains, thus locking Apaf-1 in, an inactive conformation. Apaf-1 binds to and hydrolyses ATP/dATP and, their analogues. The binding and hydrolysis of nucleotides seem to drive, conformational changes that are essential for the formation of the, apoptosome and the activation of caspase-9.

[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/APAF_HUMAN APAF_HUMAN] Oligomeric Apaf-1 mediates the cytochrome c-dependent autocatalytic activation of pro-caspase-9 (Apaf-3), leading to the activation of caspase-3 and apoptosis. This activation requires ATP. Isoform 6 is less effective in inducing apoptosis.<ref>PMID:10393175</ref> <ref>PMID:12804598</ref>
