FunctionApoptosis protease-activating factor-1 or Apoptosis peptidase-activating factor-1 (APAF-1) binds to cytochrome c and ATP to form the apoptosome which leads to the recruitment and activation of caspase 9 by cleaving the procaspase 9. Caspase 9 is involved in executing the apoptosis of cells[1]. DiseaseInactivation of Apaf-1 is implicated in disease progression and chemoresistance of some malignancies[2]. Structural highlightsApaf-1 contains several copies of the WD-40 domain which are involved in binding to cytochrome c[3]., caspase recruitment domain (CARD) and an ATPase domain.
