Solution structure of c-FLIP death effector domains

The formation of death-inducing signaling complex (DISC) and death effector domain (DED) filament initiates extrinsic apoptosis。 Recruitment and activation of procaspase-8 at the DISC are regulated by c-FLIP。 The interaction between c-FLIP and procaspase-8 is mediated by their tandem DEDs (tDED)。 However, the structure of c-FLIPtDED and how c-FLIP interferes with procaspase-8 activation at the DISC remain elusive。 Here, we solved the monomeric structure of c-FLIPtDED (F114G) at near physiological pH by solution nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)。 Structural superimposition reveals c-FLIPtDED (F114G) adopts a structural topology similar to that of procaspase-8tDED。 Our results provide a structural basis for understanding how c-FLIP interacts with procaspase-8 and the molecular mechanisms of c-FLIP in regulating cell death。
