Supplementary information

APAF1 also known as apoptotic protease activating factor 1 plays a mechanical role in apoptosis by forming a complex with other proteins to trigger cell death. The APAF1 protein has a molecular weight of approximately 130 kDa. It is expressed in many tissues but occurs highly in the brain and heart. APAF1 interacts with cytochrome c and procaspase-9 to promote the activation of the initiator caspase cascade.
Biological function summary

APAF1 functions as a central component of the apoptosome a multi-protein complex important for programmed cell death. This process is essential for normal development and cellular homeostasis. In the apoptosome APAF1 recruits and activates procaspase-9 leading to the activation of caspase-3. This cascade assures that cells die in a controlled manner preventing damage to surrounding tissues.

Pathways

APAF1 serves an important function in the intrinsic pathway of apoptosis. It mediates cytochrome c release from mitochondria a step essential for apoptosis initiation. Another important pathway involving APAF1 is the apoptotic signaling pathway. Proteins such as Bcl-2 family members and p53 influence APAF1's role in these pathways by regulating cytochrome c release and apoptosome assembly.

APAF1 is notably associated with neurodegenerative diseases and certain cancers. Dysregulation of APAF1 can lead to undesirable apoptosis contributing to neurodegenerative conditions like Parkinson’s disease. Conversely reduced APAF1 activity can result in tumor cell survival impacting cancer progression. Altered expression of APAF1 affects its interaction with proteins like Bcl-2 which can inhibit apoptosis and promote cancer cell growth.

Target data

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.
