Definition
English
:
Multimeric protein complexes formed in the
CYTOSOL
that play a
role
in the activation of
APOPTOSIS
. They can occur when
MITOCHONDRIA
become damaged due to cell stress and release CYTOCHROME C. Cytosolic cytochrome C associates with
APOPTOTIC PROTEASE-ACTIVATING FACTOR 1
to form the apoptosomal protein complex. The apoptosome signals
apoptosis
by binding to and activating specific INITIATOR
CASPASES
such as
CASPASE 9.
