Presentation on theme: "The major issue that the authors set out to address is"— Presentation transcript:

1 The major issue that the authors set out to address is
How Bid acts to induce apoptosis How Bcl-2 acts to prevent apoptosis What is cytochrome c releasing factor? How does the death receptor relay the apoptosis signal to mitochondria? All of the above

2 The cytochrome c releasing activity of Bid comes from
its amino terminal part after caspase-8 cleavage the full-length protein the carboxyl terminal part after caspase-8 cleavage the BH3 motif None of the above

3 The Bid(G94E) mutant is compromised in
binding mitochondria being cleaved by caspase-8 inducing cytochrome c release binding to Bcl-2 All of the above

4 The Bid(D59A) mutant is compromised in
binding mitochondria being cleaved by caspase-8 inducing cytochrome c release D. All of the above

5 What is the most interesting question that remains to be addressed after this study?
How does truncated Bid act to induce cytochrome c release? How does Bcl-2 acts to prevent apoptosis? Are there other cytochrome c releasing factors? How does the death receptor relay the apoptosis signal to mitochondria? How does truncated Bid bind to mitochondria?
