摘    要:Bcl-2家族蛋白在调控线粒体功能和细胞色素C释放中起重要作用。最近发现Bcl-2分子通过与其他促凋亡分子相互作用调控线粒体外膜通透性,其具体分子机制尚不完全清楚。本课题组采用化学生物学方法,在研究Bax/Bak非依赖的细胞凋亡途径中,发现了一些小分子化合物能够诱导Bim表达量急剧升高,Bim能转位到线粒体上,与Bcl-2相互作用增强,并直接促进Bcl-2构象变化。有意义的是,Bim可以诱导Bcl-2功能发生转换并能够形成大的复合体通道来介导细胞色素C释放。研究结果提示Bcl-2分子可变成促凋亡分子,参与Bax/Bak非依赖的细胞色素C释放和细胞凋亡。

关 键 词:线粒体  Bcl-2  细胞凋亡  细胞色素C

Abstract:Bcl-2 and its family proteins play pivotal roles in the regulation of the cytochrome c release and mitochondria functions.However,the mechanism on how Bcl-2 regulates mitochondrial outer membrane permeability is still not fully understood.We undertook a chemical biology approach to understand whether and how Bcl-2 regulates cytochrome c release in the absence of Bax and Bak.We identified several small compounds,such as gossypol,S-3 and PAO,that induced typical apoptosis in the bax/bak deficient cells.Mechanistic studies further revealed that these compounds are able to induce functional conversion of Bcl-2 into a Bax or Bak-like molecules.In particular,S-3 and PAO could induce the up-regulation of Bim which physically interacts with Bcl-2 at the MOM changing its conformation to form Bax-like pores which release cytochrome c and induce apoptosis.Since previous studies have generated overwhelming evidence showing that Bcl-2 is an anti-apoptotic molecule,it is surprising to find that Bim,a BH3-only protein and well known physiological inducer of apoptosis converts Bcl-2 to a Bax-like pro-apoptotic protein.
Keywords:mitochondria  Bcl-2  apoptosis  cytochrome c
