Caspases are universal effectors of
apoptosis. The mitochondrial and death receptor pathways
activate distinct apical caspases (caspase-9 and -8, respectively) that
converge on the proteolytic activation of the downstream executioner
caspase-3. Caspase-9 and -8 cleave procaspase-3 to produce a p24
processing intermediate (composed of its prodomain and large subunit),
which then undergoes autoproteolytic cleavage to remove the prodomain
from the active protease. Recently, several heat shock proteins have
been shown to selectively inhibit the mitochondrial apoptotic
pathway by disrupting the activation of caspase-9 downstream of
cytochrome c release. We report here that the small heat
shock protein
The Small Heat Shock Protein
B-Crystallin Negatively Regulates
Cytochrome c- and Caspase-8-dependent Activation of
Caspase-3 by Inhibiting Its Autoproteolytic Maturation*
B-crystallin inhibits both the mitochondrial and death
receptor pathways. In S-100 cytosolic extracts treated with cytochrome
c/dATP or caspase-8,
B-crystallin inhibits the
autoproteolytic maturation of the p24 partially processed caspase-3
intermediate. In contrast, neither the closely related small heat shock
protein family member Hsp27 nor Hsp70 inhibited the maturation of the
p24 intermediate. We also demonstrate that
B-crystallin
co-immunoprecipitates with the p24 partially processed caspase-3
in vivo. Taken together, our results demonstrate
that
B-crystallin is a novel negative regulator of apoptosis that
acts distally in the conserved cell death machinery by inhibiting the
autocatalytic maturation of caspase-3.
