http://purl.uniprot.org/citations/19387494http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#comment"The nuclear factor Acinus has been suggested to mediate apoptotic chromatin condensation after caspase cleavage. However, this role has been challenged by recent observations suggesting a contribution of Acinus in apoptotic internucleosomal DNA cleavage. We report here that AAC-11, a survival protein whose expression prevents apoptosis that occurs on deprivation of growth factors, physiologically binds to Acinus and prevents Acinus-mediated DNA fragmentation. AAC-11 was able to protect Acinus from caspase-3 cleavage in vivo and in vitro, thus interfering with its biological function. Interestingly, AAC-11 depletion markedly increased cellular sensitivity to anticancer drugs, whereas its expression interfered with drug-induced cell death. AAC-11 possesses a leucine-zipper domain that dictates, upon oligomerization, its interaction with Acinus as well as the antiapoptotic effect of AAC-11 on drug-induced cell death. A cell permeable peptide that mimics the leucine-zipper subdomain of AAC-11, thus preventing its oligomerization, inhibited the AAC-11-Acinus complex formation and potentiated drug-mediated apoptosis in cancer cells. Our results, therefore, show that targeting AAC-11 might be a potent strategy for cancer treatment by sensitization of tumour cells to chemotherapeutic drugs."xsd:string
