Background: HTRA2/Omi

HtrA2/Omi is the mammalian homologue of bacterial high temperature requirement protein (HtrA). HtrA2/Omi localizes to the mitochondria and is processed to expose an amino-terminal Reaper-like motif similar to SMAC/Diablo. HtrA2/Omi is released from the mitochondria in response to apoptotic insult and can interact with the BIR2 or BIR3 domains of XIAP to relieve caspase-IAP inhibition. This effect can be measured by reversing XIAP-BIR2 (R&D Systems, Catalog # 786-XB) inhibition of Caspase-7 (R&D Systems, Catalog # 823-C7) cleavage of a fluorogenic peptide (DEVD-AFC, MP Bio, Catalog # AFC-138). IC50 values for this effect are typically between 0.2 and 1.5 μM. HtrA2/Omi is trimeric and functions as a serine protease. The serine protease activity may play a more central role in apoptosis than its IAP antagonizing function. A PDZ domain regulates the serine protease activity by blocking access to the active site. The specificity of the protease is yet to be defined and no endogenous substrates are known to date.
