http://purl.uniprot.org/citations/8631956 | http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#comment | "The Caenorhabditis elegans cell death gene, ced-3, encodes one of the two proteins required for apoptosis in this organism. The primary sequence similarities between Ced-3 and the mammalian interleukin-1beta converting enzyme (ICE) suggest that these two proteins may have functionally similar active sites and that Ced-3 may function as a cysteine protease. Here we report that in vitro transcribed and translated Ced-3 protein (p56) underwent rapid processing to smaller fragments. Replacement of the predicted active site cysteine of Ced-3 with serine (C364S) prevented the generation of smaller proteolytic fragments, suggesting that the processing might be an autocatalytic process. Peptide aldehydes with aspartic acid at the P1 position blocked Ced-3 autocatalysis. Furthermore, the protease inhibition profile of Ced-3 was similar to the profile reported for ICE. These functional data demonstrate that Ced-3 is an Asp-dependent cysteine protease with substrate specificity similar to that of ICE. Aurintricarboxylic acid, an inhibitor of apoptosis in mammalian cells, blocked Ced-3 autocatalytic activity, suggesting that an aurintricarboxylic acid-sensitive Ced-3/ICE-related protease might be involved in the apoptosis pathway(s) in mammalian cells."xsd:string |
