Popis: | Here we demonstrate that JNK3 can phosphorylate Smac. Smac phosphorylation attenuates its ability to activate apoptosome activity in HeLa S-100 cell lysates. Addition of the X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein (XIAP) to the S-100 markedly suppresses apoptosome activity, and this suppressive effect of XIAP is neutralized by adding unphosphorylated Smac, but not phosphorylated Smac. Furtherover, JNK3-mediated phosphorylation of Smac markedly attenuates the interaction between Smac and XIAP, as measured by BIACORE assays and non-denaturing gel shift assays. When JNK3 activity is down-regulated in etoposide-induced HeLa cells by transiently overexpressing a dominant negative version of JNK3 (DN-JNK3), the caspase-3 activity as well as PARP cleavages are markedly enhanced. And the interaction of Smac with XIAP also increases by down-regulating JNK3 activity under the same conditions. These results suggest that JNK3 activity can attenuate the progression of apoptosis through a novel mechanism of action, the down-regulation of interaction between Smac and XIAP. |
