Evolution and Structure of API5 and Its Roles in Anti-Apoptosis

Abstract: Apoptosis, also named programmed cell death, is a highly conserved physiological mechanism. Apoptosis plays crucial roles in many life processes, such as tissue development, organ formation, homeostasis maintenance, resistance against external aggression, and immune responses. Apoptosis is regulated by many genes, among which Apoptosis Inhibitor-5 (API5) is an effective inhibitor, though the structure of API5 is completely different from the other known Inhibitors Of Apoptosis Proteins (IAPs). Due to its high … Show more

“…We found that the proteins that may interact with these two proteins are involved in physiological activities such as transcriptional, post-translational regulation and apoptosis. For example, the Api5 (apoptosis inhibitor 5) participates in cell apoptosis as an effective inhibitor ( Chen et al, 2021 ), whereas the Sap18 and Pabpn are involved in the post-transcriptional and post-translational modification processes, respectively ( Nicholson & Pasquinelli, 2019 ; Zhang et al, 1997 ).…”

“…Apoptosis, also known as programmed cell death, is a physiological process that occurs in multicellular organisms ( 30 ). Chen et al ( 31 ) demonstrate that apoptosis acts as a critical participant in numerous biological processes, including tissue development and organ formation. Downregulation of GINS2 induces cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in lung cancer A549 cells ( 32 ).…”

“…It belongs to the API5 family, whose members contain the so-called API5 domain (Pfam ID PF05918), a domain notably absent in proteins encoded by eubacteria, archaebacteria, and viruses' genomes, but which is encoded by genomes from several ancient eukaryotic taxonomic groups [37]. Alignment analyses of API5 orthologs across species, vertebrates, and invertebrates, indicate a high level of conservation in the sequence and protein domains [38][39][40]. It is well established that protein domains are functional and structural units within proteins that can be added, rearranged, or combined through evolution to create novel functionalities and facilitate the creation of complex biological systems [41][42][43].…”
