The 14-3-3epsilon protein was identified as one of the caspase-3 substrates by the modified yeast two-hybrid system. The cellular 14-3-3epsilon protein was also cleaved in response to the treatment of apoptosis inducers in cultured mammalian cells. Asp(238) of the 14-3-3epsilon protein was determined as the site of cleavage by caspase-3. The affinity of the cleaved 14-3-3 mutant protein (D238) to Bad, a death-promoting Bcl-2 family protein, was lower than that of wild type or the uncleavable mutant 14-3-3epsilon protein (D238A). However, Bad associated with the cellular Bcl-x(L) more effectively in human 293T cells coexpressing Bad with the truncated form of the 14-3-3epsilon protein ( D238) than in control cells co-expressing Bad with wild type or the uncleavable mutant 14-3-3epsilon protein ( D238A). The present study suggests that the cleavage of 14-3-3 protein during apoptosis promotes cell death by releasing the associated Bad from the 14-3-3 protein and facilitates Bad translocation to the mitochondria and its interaction with Bcl-x(L).
