Activating Compound

Activating Compound Comment Organism Structure
additional information HtrA2/Omi protein levels are upregulated several fold when the unfolded protein response is triggered by heat shock. Transient exposure to elevated temperatures augments the protease activity of human HtrA2/Omi Homo sapiens
siRNA siRNA-mediated knockdown of HtrA2/Omi combined with the pan-caspase inhibitor zVAD-fmk almost completely protects HeLa cells from undergoing staurosporine-induced cell death, whereas caspase inhibition alone is significantly less effective Homo sapiens

A141S affects the enzymatic activity of the protease, associated with the development of Parkinson’s disease Homo sapiens
G399S affects the enzymatic activity of the protease, associated with the development of Parkinson’s disease Homo sapiens
additional information mutations in the genes encoding HtrA proteins correlate with Parkinson’s disease. Lower HtrA2/Omi phosphorylation levels in brains of patients with Parkinson’s disease carrying mutations in PINK1 Homo sapiens
additional information mutations in the genes encoding HtrA proteins correlate with perinatal lethality in mice Mus musculus
S276C HtrA2/Omi appears to be correctly processed in cells derived from Mnd2 mice (motor neuron degeneration 2), which are homozygous for a naturally occurring Ser276Cys mutation in the HtrA2/Omi protease domain that greatly reduces its catalytic activity. Mnd2 mice display Parkinsonian phenotype, fail to gain weight, and organs such as the heart, thymus and spleen are dramatically smaller when compared to wild-type littermates. Reduced body weight and progressive loss of neurons in the striatum of the basal ganglia are also evident in mice with a targeted deletion of the HtrA2/Omi gene. HtrA2/Omi-/- mice display a lack of coordination, decreased mobility and tremor Mus musculus
S306A enzymatically inactive, remains uncleaved Homo sapiens
