| + | [[http://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> [[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/CASP9_HUMAN CASP9_HUMAN]] Involved in the activation cascade of caspases responsible for apoptosis execution. Binding of caspase-9 to Apaf-1 leads to activation of the protease which then cleaves and activates caspase-3. Promotes DNA damage-induced apoptosis in a ABL1/c-Abl-dependent manner. Proteolytically cleaves poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP).<ref>PMID:15657060</ref> Isoform 2 lacks activity is an dominant-negative inhibitor of caspase-9.<ref>PMID:15657060</ref> | ||
