APAF1 encodes a cytoplasmic protein that initiates apoptosis. This protein(apoptotic peptidase activating factor 1) contains several copies of the WD-40 domain, a caspase recruitment domain (CARD), and an ATPase domain (NB-ARC). Upon binding cytochrome c and dATP, this protein forms an oligomeric apoptosome. The apoptosome binds and cleaves caspase 9 preproprotein, releasing its mature, activated form. Activated caspase 9 stimulates the subsequent caspase cascade that commits the cell to apoptosis. Alternative splicing results in several transcript variants encoding different isoforms.蛋白别名为：APAF1-interacting protein; APIP; APIP2; CGI-29 protein; MMRP19; dJ179L10.2; likely ortholog of mouse monocyte macrophage 19;基因ID为：317；蛋白质ID:O14727-6
