摘要: Many chemotherapeutic drugs and treatments initiate apoptotic cell death by inducing the release of cytochrome c from mitochondria, which activates Apaf-1. This large (approximately 130–140 kDa) protein is a mammalian homolog CED-4, an essential involved in programmed nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. Cytochrome Apaf-1, oligomerizes to form Apaf-1 apoptosome complex, recruits caspase-9, initiator caspase, holoenzyme complex.
