Cytochrome c and ATP hydrolysis are required for Apaf‐1 to interact with procaspase‐9.
Cytochrome c and ATP hydrolysis are required for Apaf‐1 to interact with procaspase‐9. (A) Procaspase‐9 interacts with endogenous Apaf‐1 in a cytochrome c and dATP‐dependent manner. Equal amounts of 293T cytosolic extracts containing procaspase‐9 (C287S)‐HA were incubated with rabbit anti‐HA antibody and protein A/G–agarose beads (1:1) under the indicated conditions at 4°C for 2 h. Then the beads were pelleted and washed four times with 1 ml NP‐40 buffer. ‘++’ indicates that 5 mM ATP‐γS was included in the extract. (B) Procaspase‐9 interacts with Apaf‐1M368L in the absence of cytochrome c and dATP. The experiments were performed as in (A) except that procaspase‐9(C287S)‐HA‐containing extracts were mixed with lysates containing Apaf‐1, Apaf‐1M368L or Apaf‐1K160R. (C) A double‐point mutant, Apaf‐1M368L/K160R fails to interact with procaspase‐9. Expression of wt and mutant Apaf‐1 proteins in total lysates is shown in the lower panels in (B) and (C).
