Smac/DIABLO (second mitochondrial-derived activator of caspase/direct IAP binding protein with low pI) is encoded by the nucleus and resides as a precursor within the intermembranous space of the mitochondria. During apoptosis, Smac/DIABLO is proteolytically cleaved and released from the mitochondria into the cytosol, where it promotes cell death by interacting with IAPs and inhibiting their anti-apoptotic function. In turn, certain IAPs may degrade Smac/DIABLO and block its cell death function. Smac/DIABLO is expressed in a wide range of normal tissues and some tumor cells lines, and its over-expression in tumor cell lines can trigger both extrinsic and intrinsic apoptosis pathways.
