摘要

In the course of apoptosis, caspases cleave ~500-1,000 different proteins in a mammalian cell (1, 2). A small subset of the resulting protein fragments comprises polypeptides with proapoptotic activity, defined as those polypeptides that increase the probability of apoptosis compared with full-length precursors. Previous studies identified ~20 caspase-generated proapoptotic fragments of mammalian proteins. In contrast to activated caspases, which can be counteracted by members of the inhibitor of apoptosis protein family, there is virtually no understanding of cellular responses to proapoptotic protein fragments. One possibility is the regulation of proapoptotic fragments by their selective degradation. We report here that at least 10 known proapoptotic fragments are short-lived substrates of the Arg/N-end rule pathway.
