Renatus M, Stennicke HR, Scott FL, Liddington RC, Salvesen GSDimer formation drives the activation of the cell death protease caspase 9Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. v98, p.14250-14255A critical step in the induction of apoptosis is the activation of the apoptotic initiator caspase 9. We show that at its normal physiological concentration, caspase 9 is primarily an inactive monomer (zymogen), and that activity is associated with a dimeric species. At the high concentrations used for crystal formation, caspase 9 is dimeric, and the structure reveals two very different active-site conformations within each dimer....
