Ruthenium(II) and iridium(III) bis(terpyridine) complexes were prepared with maleimide functionalities in order to site-specifically modify yeast iso-1 cytochrome c possessing a single cysteine residue available for modification (CYS102). Single X-ray crystal structures were solved for aniline and maleimide Ru(II) 3 and Ru(II) 4, respectively, providing detailed structural detail of the complex...
PURPOSE Curcumin (Cur) has been reported to induce apoptosis in human renal carcinoma Caki cells. Dimethoxycurcumin (DMC), one of several synthetic Cur analogues, has been reported to have increased metabolic stability over Cur. We determined whether DMC, like Cur, induces apoptosis in Caki cells and also compared the apoptosis-inducing activity of DMC with that of Cur. MATERIALS AND METHODS ...
Proteolytic processing of procaspase-9 is required for its activation, but processing in itself appears to be insufficient for its activity. We studied caspase activation in a cell-free system and found that incubation of cytosol from rat kidney proximal tubule cells with Cytochrome c (Cyt c) and dATP results in rapid autocatalytic processing of procaspase-9 from ~50 kD to ~38 kD size fragment....
Functional selection of genetic suppressor elements (GSEs), engineered gene fragments that interfere with the function of a particular gene product, was used to identify regulators of FAS-induced apoptosis. Chicken DF-1 cells expressing human FAS receptor and susceptible to FAS-induced apoptosis were infected with a GSE library consisting of randomly fragmented normalized chicken cDNAs in a rep...
The complete AIF cDNA comprising the amino-terminal mitochondrial localization sequence (MLS) and the oxidoreductase domain has been fused in its carboxyl terminus to enhanced green fluorescent protein (GFP), thereby engineering an AIF-GFP fusion protein that is selectively targeted to the mitochondrial intermembrane space. Upon induction of apoptosis, the AIF-GFP protein translocates together ...
Global brain ischemia/reperfusion induces neuronal damage in vulnerable brain regions, leading to mitochondrial dysfunction and subsequent neuronal death. Induction of neuronal death is mediated by release of cytochrome c (cyt c) from the mitochondria though a well-characterized increase in outer mitochondrial membrane permeability. However, for cyt c to be released it is first necessary for cy...
We examined the temporal and causal relationship between Smac/DIABLO release, cytochrome c (cyt-c) release, and caspase activation at the single cell level during apoptosis. Cells treated with the broad-spectrum caspase inhibitor z-VAD-fmk, caspase-3 (Casp-3)-deficient MCF-7 cells, as well as Bax-deficient DU-145 cells released Smac/DIABLO and cyt-c in response to proapoptotic agents. Real-time...
Two homologous plastocyanin isoforms are encoded by the genes PETE1 and PETE2 in the nuclear genome of Arabidopsis thaliana. The PETE2 transcript is expressed at considerably higher levels and the PETE2 protein is the more abundant isoform. Null mutations in the PETE genes resulted in plants, designated pete1 and pete2, with decreased plastocyanin contents. However, despite reducing plastocyani...
In view of the role ascribed to the peroxidatic activity of degradation products of cytochrome c (cyt c) in the processes of apoptosis, we investigate the catalytic potential of heme and of the cyt c derived heme peptide MP-11 to catalyse the cathodic reduction of hydrogen peroxide and to oxidize aromatic compounds. In order to check whether cyt c has an enzymatic activity in the native state w...
Effect of a hydrophobic peptide on folding of oxidized cytochrome c (cyt c) is studied with trityrosine. Folding of cyt c was initiated by pH jump from 2.3 (acid-unfolded) to 4.2 (folded). The Soret band of the 2-ms transient absorption spectrum during folding decreased its intensity and red-shifted from 397 to 400 nm by interaction with trityrosine, whereas tyrosinol caused no significant effe...
