'''CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF HUMAN PROCASPASE-7'''<br />


==Overview==
==Crystal structure of human procaspase-7==
Caspases form a family of proteinases required for the initiation and, execution phases of apoptosis. Distinct proapoptotic stimuli lead to, activation of the initiator caspases-8 and -9, which in turn activate the, common executioner caspases-3 and -7 by proteolytic cleavage. Whereas, crystal structures of several active caspases have been reported, no, three-dimensional structure of an uncleaved caspase zymogen is available, so far. We have determined the 2.9-A crystal structure of recombinant, human C285A procaspase-7 and have elucidated the activation mechanism of, caspases. The overall fold of the homodimeric procaspase-7 resembles that, of the active tetrameric caspase-7. Each monomer is organized in two, structured subdomains connected by partially flexible linkers, which, asymmetrically occupy and block the central cavity, a typical feature of, active caspases. This blockage is incompatible with a functional substrate, binding site/active site. After proteolytic cleavage within the flexible, linkers, the newly formed chain termini leave the cavity and fold outward, to form stable structures. These conformational changes are associated, with the formation of an intact active-site cleft. Therefore, this, mechanism represents a formerly unknown type of proteinase zymogen, activation.

== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/CASP7_HUMAN CASP7_HUMAN] Involved in the activation cascade of caspases responsible for apoptosis execution. Cleaves and activates sterol regulatory element binding proteins (SREBPs). Proteolytically cleaves poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) at a '216-Asp-|-Gly-217' bond. Overexpression promotes programmed cell death.

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
Caspases form a family of proteinases required for the initiation and execution phases of apoptosis. Distinct proapoptotic stimuli lead to activation of the initiator caspases-8 and -9, which in turn activate the common executioner caspases-3 and -7 by proteolytic cleavage. Whereas crystal structures of several active caspases have been reported, no three-dimensional structure of an uncleaved caspase zymogen is available so far. We have determined the 2.9-A crystal structure of recombinant human C285A procaspase-7 and have elucidated the activation mechanism of caspases. The overall fold of the homodimeric procaspase-7 resembles that of the active tetrameric caspase-7. Each monomer is organized in two structured subdomains connected by partially flexible linkers, which asymmetrically occupy and block the central cavity, a typical feature of active caspases. This blockage is incompatible with a functional substrate binding site/active site. After proteolytic cleavage within the flexible linkers, the newly formed chain termini leave the cavity and fold outward to form stable structures. These conformational changes are associated with the formation of an intact active-site cleft. Therefore, this mechanism represents a formerly unknown type of proteinase zymogen activation.
