Background

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.
