Biological Function Apoptotic regulator capable of exerting proapoptotic and anti-apoptotic activities and plays crucial roles in apoptosis, cell proliferation, and cell cycle control (PubMed:11162435, PubMed:11024045, PubMed:11084335, PubMed:16729033, PubMed:17294084). Its anti-apoptotic activity is mediated through the inhibition of CASP3, CASP7 and CASP9, as well as by its E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase activity (PubMed:11024045, PubMed:16729033). As it is a weak caspase inhibitor, its anti-apoptotic activity is thought to be due to its ability to ubiquitinate DIABLO/SMAC targeting it for degradation thereby promoting cell survival (PubMed:16729033). May contribute to caspase inhibition, by blocking the ability of DIABLO/SMAC to disrupt XIAP/BIRC4-caspase interactions (PubMed:16729033). Protects against apoptosis induced by TNF or by chemical agents such as adriamycin, etoposide or staurosporine (PubMed:11162435, PubMed:11084335, PubMed:11865055). Suppression of apoptosis is mediated by activation of MAPK8/JNK1, and possibly also of MAPK9/JNK2 (PubMed:11865055). This activation depends on TAB1 and MAP3K7/TAK1 (PubMed:11865055). In vitro, inhibits CASP3 and proteolytic activation of pro-CASP9 (PubMed:11024045). {PubMed:11024045, PubMed:11084335, PubMed:11162435, PubMed:11865055, PubMed:16729033, PubMed:17294084}.; [Isoform 1]: Blocks staurosporine-induced apoptosis (PubMed:11322947). Promotes natural killer (NK) cell-mediated killing (PubMed:18034418). {PubMed:11322947, PubMed:18034418}.; [Isoform 2]: Blocks etoposide-induced apoptosis (PubMed:11162435, PubMed:11322947). Protects against natural killer (NK) cell-mediated killing (PubMed:18034418). {PubMed:11162435, PubMed:11322947, PubMed:18034418}.
Research Areas Apoptosis
Background Apoptosis is prevented by the inhibitor of apoptosis (IAP) proteins. A novel member in the IAP protein family has been identified and designated Livin and KIAP for kidney IAP. Livin/KIAP contains a single baculoviral IAP repeat (BIR) domain and a RING finger domain and has two isoforms termed Livin-a and Livin-b. Transfection of Livin in cells results in protection from apoptosis induced by FADD, BAX, RIP, RIP3 and DR6. Livin has direct interaction with several caspases including caspase-3, -7, and -9. Livin inhibits the activation of caspase-9 induced by Apaf- 1, cytochrome c, and dATP. The two isoforms of Livin appear to have different functions and tissue distributions.
