* Information From OMIM

Function: Li et al. (1997) determined that caspase-9 and APAF1 (OMIM:602233) bind to each other via their respective NH2-terminal CED-3 homologous domains in the presence of cytochrome c (OMIM:123970) and dATP, an event that leads to caspase-9 activation. Activated caspase-9 in turn cleaves and activates caspase-3. Depletion of caspase-9 from S-100 extracts diminished caspase-3 activation. Mutation of the active site of caspase-9 (cys287 to ala) attenuated the activation of caspase-3 and cellular apoptotic response in vivo, indicating that caspase-9 is the most upstream member of the apoptotic protease cascade that is triggered by cytochrome c and dATP.
