DAP5/p97 (death-associated protein 5) is a member of the eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4G family. It functions as a scaffold protein promoting cap-independent translation of proteins. During apoptosis, DAP5/p97 is cleaved by caspases at position 792, yielding an 86-kDa C-terminal truncated isoform (DAP5/p86) that promotes translation of several mRNAs mediated by an internal ribosome ...
PURPOSE AND EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of combined treatment with tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) and cisplatin in human head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. HNSCC-6 cells were treated with 0.1-1 micro g/ml TRAIL and/or 1-10 micro g/ml cisplatin for 24 h. RESULTS TRAIL alone or cisplatin alone caused minimal cytoto...
In many mammalian cell types, engagement of the TRAIL/Apo2L death receptors DR4 and DR5 alters mitochondrial physiology, thereby promoting the release of pro-apoptotic proteins normally contained within this organelle. A contemporary view of this process is that in so-called type II cells death receptor-activated caspase-8 cleaves the Bcl-2 family member Bid, which generates a truncated Bid fra...
Because of its wide range of substrates, caspase-3, a main executioner among apoptosis-related caspases, is thought to have many unknown substrates that have remained unidentified. This report describes our predictive method to facilitate the discovery of novel caspase-3 substrates. To develop a more reliable prediction method, we specifically examined improvement of the data quantity and quali...
Caspase proteases are principal mediators of apoptosis, where they cleave hundreds of proteins. Phosphorylation also plays an important role in apoptosis, although the extent to which proteolytic and phosphorylation pathways crosstalk during programmed cell death remains poorly understood. Using a quantitative proteomic platform that integrates phosphorylation sites into the topographical maps ...
Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) are a family of serine/threonine kinases essential for cell cycle progression. Herein, we describe the participation of CDKs in the physiology of Rhipicephalus microplus, the southern cattle tick and an important disease vector. Firstly, amino acid sequences homologous with CDKs of other organisms were identified from a R. microplus transcriptome database in sili...
Caspase-8 activation promotes cell apoptosis but is also essential for T cell activation. The extent of caspase activation and substrate cleavage in these divergent processes remains unclear. We show that murine effector CD4(+) T cells generated levels of caspase activity intermediate between unstimulated T cells and apoptotic populations. Both caspase-8 and caspase-3 were partially activated i...
