Activating Compound

Activating Compound Comment Organism Structure
additional information procaspase-10 is proteolytically activated to caspase-10, mechanism of activation and the role of the inter-subunit cleavage, overview. Caspase-10 follows the proximity-induced dimerization model for apical caspases. Chemically inducible dimerization fusions activate the wild-type but not the cleavage site mutant caspase-10 Homo sapiens
Sodium citrate activates the wild-type enzyme up to 500fold and the D297A mutant 100fold at up to 1.0 M, is inhibitory above probably due to precipitation Homo sapiens

Cloned(Commentary)

Cloned (Comment) Organism
the caspase-10 gene is linked to the caspase-8 gene, EC 3.4.22.61, at the human chromosome locus 2q33-34. Expression of His-tagged truncated mutant, with and without the D279A mutation, in Escherichia coli strain BL21 (DE3) Homo sapiens

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
D297A site-directed mutagenesis, the single mutation D297A completely abrogates autocleavage between the subunits, the purified mutant is a single chain of 35 kDa. The cleavage site mutant has restricted specificity and highly reduced activity on protein substrates, overview Homo sapiens
additional information construction of a truncated mutant lacking the first 202 residues, and of the truncation mutant with a substitution D297A in the catalytic site, cloning into a vector with chimeric protein with an N-terminal His-tag followed by the Fv-domain. Chemically inducible dimerization fusions activate the wild-type but not the cleavage site mutant caspase-10 Homo sapiens

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
evolution human caspase-10 and caspase-8, EC 3.4.22.61, are highly homologous in their protein sequence, 46% identical in the catalytic domain, and their genes are on the same region of human chromosome 2q33-34 suggesting that they have a common ancestor Homo sapiens
metabolism apoptosis is a form of programmed cell death that requires members of a family of aspartate-specific cysteine proteases, called caspases, to both initiate and execute the apoptotic phenotype Homo sapiens
additional information residue D297 is essential for autocleavage, while even though the sequence surrounding D319 is compatible for cleavage by caspase-10, its location close to the compact core makes it unavailable for cleavage Homo sapiens
physiological function prodeath role for both cleaved and uncleaved caspase-10 Homo sapiens
