Supplementary information

Pro Caspase-3 also known as Caspase-3 zymogen is a central component in the apoptotic process. This inactive precursor form undergoes cleavage during apoptosis to become active caspase-3 an important executioner in cell death. Caspase-3 possesses a molecular weight of approximately 32 kDa. It is expressed ubiquitously in cells throughout the body with a higher concentration in tissues with rapid cell turnover such as thymus and gastrointestinal tract.
Biological function summary

The inactive pro Caspase-3 form serves as a safeguard in cells preventing premature apoptosis. It only becomes the active caspase-3 after specific activation ensuring controlled progression of apoptosis. This inactive form does not participate in any complex but becomes a part of the caspase family network upon cleavage. In its active form caspase-3 leads to the cleavage of several key cellular proteins driving the morphological and biochemical changes seen during apoptosis.

Pathways

Pro Caspase-3 is critical in the apoptotic signaling pathway. It serves as a link between intrinsic and extrinsic pathways of apoptosis. The intrinsic pathway often triggered by mitochondrial signals and the extrinsic pathway initiated by death receptor signals both lead to the activation of caspase-3. In these pathways pro Caspase-3 interacts with proteins like caspase-8 and cytochrome c playing a part in their signaling cascades and cellular outcomes.

Pro Caspase-3 is associated with conditions involving dysregulated apoptosis. One such condition is cancer where evasion of apoptosis leads to uncontrolled cell proliferation. The therapeutic targeting of pro Caspase-3 activation holds potential in reinstating apoptotic pathways in cancerous cells. Additionally it relates to neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's where excessive apoptosis contributes to neuronal loss. Here active caspase-3 interacts with proteins like amyloid precursor protein suggesting a role in the disease's progression.

Target data

Thiol protease that acts as a major effector caspase involved in the execution phase of apoptosis (PubMed : 18723680, PubMed : 20566630, PubMed : 23650375, PubMed : 35338844, PubMed : 35446120, PubMed : 7596430). Following cleavage and activation by initiator caspases (CASP8, CASP9 and/or CASP10), mediates execution of apoptosis by catalyzing cleavage of many proteins (PubMed : 18723680, PubMed : 20566630, PubMed : 23650375, PubMed : 7596430). At the onset of apoptosis, it proteolytically cleaves poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase PARP1 at a '216-Asp-|-Gly-217' bond (PubMed : 10497198, PubMed : 16374543, PubMed : 7596430, PubMed : 7774019). Cleaves and activates sterol regulatory element binding proteins (SREBPs) between the basic helix-loop-helix leucine zipper domain and the membrane attachment domain (By similarity). Cleaves and activates caspase-6, -7 and -9 (CASP6, CASP7 and CASP9, respectively) (PubMed : 7596430). Cleaves and inactivates interleukin-18 (IL18) (PubMed : 37993714, PubMed : 9334240). Involved in the cleavage of huntingtin (PubMed : 8696339). Triggers cell adhesion in sympathetic neurons through RET cleavage (PubMed : 21357690). Cleaves DSG2 in response to apoptosis resulting in a loss of full length DSG2 at desmosome cell junctions and subsequent loss of cell-cell adhesion (PubMed : 17559062). Also cleaves JUP in response to apoptosis (PubMed : 17559062). Cleaves and inhibits serine/threonine-protein kinase AKT1 in response to oxidative stress (PubMed : 23152800). Acts as an inhibitor of type I interferon production during virus-induced apoptosis by mediating cleavage of antiviral proteins CGAS, IRF3 and MAVS, thereby preventing cytokine overproduction (PubMed : 30878284). Also involved in pyroptosis by mediating cleavage and activation of gasdermin-E (GSDME) (PubMed : 35338844, PubMed : 35446120). Cleaves XRCC4 and phospholipid scramblase proteins XKR4, XKR8 and XKR9, leading to promote phosphatidylserine exposure on apoptotic cell surface (PubMed : 23845944, PubMed : 33725486). Cleaves BIRC6 following inhibition of BIRC6-caspase binding by DIABLO/SMAC (PubMed : 36758104, PubMed : 36758106).
