초록
BCL-2 family members are essential protein for the regulation of cell death and survival consisting both anti- apoptotic and pro-apoptotic proteins. In the present study, we designed and cloned a new apoptotic molecule MCL-1ES BH3M coding a modified protein of MCL-1L. Compared to MCL-1L protein, MCL-1ES BH3M lacks the PEST motifs known to be involved in MCL-1L protein degradation and has seven mutated residues in BH3 domain critical for dimerization with BCL-2 family members. Overexpression of Mcl-1ES BH3M induced death of different cells, and its cell killing effect was not blocked by forced expression of the pro-survival protein MCL-1L. Expression of MCL-1ES BH3M protein led to the activation of caspase 9 and caspase3, suggesting apoptotic cell death, and confocal fluorescent microscopic analyses showed that MCL-1ES BH3M was partially localized in mitochondria. In conclusion, we reported a new apoptotic molecule and determined its cell death activity in cells
Abstract
