'''Structure of a CED-4/CED-9 complex'''<br />


==Overview==
==Structure of a CED-4/CED-9 complex==
Interplay among four genes--egl-1, ced-9, ced-4 and ced-3--controls the, onset of programmed cell death in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans., Activation of the cell-killing protease CED-3 requires CED-4. However, CED-4 is constitutively inhibited by CED-9 until its release by EGL-1., Here we report the crystal structure of the CED-4-CED-9 complex at 2.6 A, resolution, and a complete reconstitution of the CED-3 activation pathway, using homogeneous proteins of CED-4, CED-9 and EGL-1. One molecule of, CED-9 binds to an asymmetric dimer of CED-4, but specifically recognizes, only one of the two CED-4 molecules. This specific interaction prevents, CED-4 from activating CED-3. EGL-1 binding induces pronounced, conformational changes in CED-9 that result in the dissociation of the, CED-4 dimer from CED-9. The released CED-4 dimer further dimerizes to form, a tetramer, which facilitates the autoactivation of CED-3. Together, our, studies provide important insights into the regulation of cell death, activation in C. elegans.

Function

CED9_CAEEL Plays a major role in programmed cell death (PCD, apoptosis). Egl-1 binds to and directly inhibits the activity of ced-9, releasing the cell death activator ced-4 from a ced-9/ced-4 containing protein complex and allowing ced-4 to activate the cell-killing caspase ced-3.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6]
