Lonomycin-activated calpain triggers apoptosis - A probable role for Bcl-2 family members (2002)

Gil-Parrado,S., Fernandez-Montalvan,A., Assfalg-Machleidt,I., Popp,O., Bestvater,F., Holloschi,A., ...

Ubiquitous calpains (mu- and m-calpain) have been repeatedly implicated in apoptosis, but the underlying mechanism(s) remain(s) to be elucidated. We examined ionomycin-induced cell death in LCLC 103H...

Structural basis for the activation of human procaspase-7 (2001)

Riedl,S. J., Fuentes-Prior,P., Renatus,M., Kairies,N., Krapp,S., Huber,R., ...

Caspases form a family of proteinases required for the initiation and execution phases of apoptosis. Distinct proapoptotic stimuli lead to activation of the initiator caspases-8 and -9, which in turn...

Proteolytic activation of the cell death protease Yama/CPP32 by granzyme B.

Quan, L T, Tewari, M, O'Rourke, K, Dixit, V, Snipas, S J, Poirier, G G, ...

The serine protease granzyme B, which is secreted by cytotoxic cells, is one of the major effectors of apoptosis in susceptible targets. To examine the apoptotic mechanism of granzyme B, we have...

Covalent binding of proteinases in their reaction with alpha 2-macroglobulin.

Salvesen, G S, Barrett, A J

Although it is known that most of the plasma proteinase inhibitors form complexes with proteinases that are not dissociated by SDS (sodium dodecyl sulphate), there has been disagreement as to whether...

Further characterization of the covalent linking reaction of alpha 2-macroglobulin.

Salvesen, G S, Sayers, C A, Barrett, A J

It is shown that non-proteolytic proteins can become covalently linked to alpha 2M (alpha 2-macroglobulin) during its reaction with proteinases, and that this probably occurs by the mechanism that...

The c-IAP-1 and c-IAP-2 proteins are direct inhibitors of specific caspases.

Roy, N, Deveraux, Q L, Takahashi, R, Salvesen, G S, Reed, J C

The inhibitor of apoptosis (IAP) family of proteins are highly conserved through evolution. However, the mechanisms by which these proteins interfere with apoptotic cell death have been enigmatic....

IAPs block apoptotic events induced by caspase-8 and cytochrome c by direct inhibition of distinct caspases.

Deveraux, Q L, Roy, N, Stennicke, H R, Van Arsdale, T, Zhou, Q, Srinivasula, S M, ...

Inhibitor of apoptosis (IAP) gene products play an evolutionarily conserved role in regulating programmed cell death in diverse species ranging from insects to humans. Human XIAP, cIAP1 and cIAP2 are...

Cleavage of human inhibitor of apoptosis protein XIAP results in fragments with distinct specificities for caspases.

Deveraux, Q L, Leo, E, Stennicke, H R, Welsh, K, Salvesen, G S, Reed, J C

Several human inhibitor of apoptosis (IAP) family proteins function by directly inhibiting specific caspases in a mechanism that does not require IAP cleavage. In this study, however, we demonstrate...

Activation of pro-caspase-7 by serine proteases includes a non-canonical specificity.

Zhou, Q, Salvesen, G S

As a model to investigate the mechanism of caspase activation we have analysed the processing of pro-caspase-7 by serine proteases with varied specificities. The caspase-7 zymogen was rapidly...

Internally quenched fluorescent peptide substrates disclose the subsite preferences of human caspases 1, 3, 6, 7 and 8.

Stennicke, H R, Renatus, M, Meldal, M, Salvesen, G S

Subsite interactions are considered to define the stringent specificity of proteases for their natural substrates. To probe this issue in the proteolytic pathways leading to apoptosis we have...

Inhibition of distant caspase homologues by natural caspase inhibitors.

Snipas, S J, Stennicke, H R, Riedl, S, Potempa, J, Travis, J, Barrett, A J, ...

Caspases play an important role in the ability of animal cells to kill themselves by apoptosis. Caspase activity is regulated in vivo by members of three distinct protease inhibitor families, two of...
