霍维茨有能力使C. elegans,在Dana-Farber癌症研究所为了鉴定调节哈佛医学院所有131个体细胞死亡的基因(Ellis和Horvitz,1986)。由于他们在发育遗传学和程序性细胞死亡方面的开创性贡献,布伦纳、霍维茨和苏尔斯顿三人获得了2002年诺贝尔奖。最初,两个基因,程序性细胞死亡是一个独特的遗传和bio-ced-3和ced-4被指出是绝对必要的化学途径必不可少的后生动物。一个完整的所有死亡。然而,另一个基因ced-9是成功胚胎所需的死亡途径,以防止细胞死亡,并首次通过获得发育和维持正常组织功能突变n1950来确定,该突变主要阻断稳态。细胞凋亡已被证明是所有体细胞死亡之间的紧密联系(Hengartner和Horvitz,1994 a)。与其他重要的细胞通路交织在一起。已证实的是,在细胞死亡BCL-2癌基因中的关键控制点的哺乳动物化的蠕虫同源物,其已被证明阻止途径已经产生了基本的凋亡细胞死亡的基本见解。此外,哺乳动物BCL-2是生物学的,也为新的能够在C.秀丽隐杆线虫(Vaux等,1992;治疗学。Hengartner和Horvitz,1994 b),表明这种细胞死亡途径的进化保守性。程序性细胞死亡(Lockshin和威廉姆斯,1965)ced-3的克隆和表征提供了细胞凋亡及其形态学表现(Kerr等人,1972)是一种保守的途径,其基本原理是执行细胞死亡。ced-3编码一种与在所有后生动物中起作用的相关蛋白。哺乳动物白细胞介素1 β转化酶(ICE)胚胎发育期间的细胞死亡对于成功或参与炎症是必不可少的(Yuan等人,1993年)。ced-3或ICE在哺乳动物细胞中诱导细胞组织的表达和复杂多细胞的加工。分化细胞死亡的进化出现。ICE成为一类需要控制死亡和分裂的蛋白酶家族的第一个成员(caspase-1),以保持相邻细胞相互依赖地切割具有天冬氨酸(aspase)的基序,从而破坏和确保每个细胞谱系的适当平衡。名称半胱天冬酶(Thornberry和Lazebnik,1998)。细胞凋亡也在成年生物体中起作用,以维持半胱天冬酶作为非活性酶原产生,以维持正常的细胞内稳态。这一点尤其重要。

For their pioneering con-Boston, Massachusetts 02115 tributions to developmental genetics and programmed cell death, the triumvirate of Brenner, Horvitz, and Sul-ston received the 2002 Nobel Prize. Initially, two genes, Programmed cell death is a distinct genetic and bio-ced-3 and ced-4 were noted to be absolutely required chemical pathway essential to metazoans. An intact for all deaths. Whereas, another gene, ced-9 is required death pathway is required for successful embryonic to prevent cell death and was first identified by a gain-development and the maintenance of normal tissue of-function mutation n1950, which dominantly blocked homeostasis. Apoptosis has proven to be tightly inter-all somatic cell death (Hengartner and Horvitz, 1994a). woven with other essential cell pathways. The iden-ced-9 proved to be the worm homolog of the mammalian tification of critical control points in the cell death BCL-2 oncogene, which had been shown to prevent pathway has yielded fundamental insights for basic apoptotic cell death. Moreover, mammalian BCL-2 was biology, as well as provided rational targets for new capable of functioning in C. elegans (Vaux et al., 1992; therapeutics. Hengartner and Horvitz, 1994b) suggesting the evolutionary conservation of this cell death pathway. Programmed cell death (Lockshin and Williams, 1965) The cloning and characterization of ced-3 provided a and its morphologic manifestation of apoptosis (Kerr et critical insight into how the core apoptotic machinery al., 1972) is a conserved pathway that in its basic tenets executes cell death. ced-3 encoded a protein related to appears operative in all metazoans. Cell deaths during the mammalian interleukin 1␤ converting enzyme (ICE) embryonic development are essential for successful or-involved in inflammation (Yuan et al., 1993).
