def: "A process in which a symbiont initiates, promotes, or enhances the normal execution of host apoptosis, leading to an increase in the frequency, rate or extent of apoptosis in the host cell. The host is defined as the larger of the organisms involved in a symbiotic interaction." [PMID:11805081, PMID:18037263, PMID:19801898, PMID:29571981]
comment: Note that term is to be used to annotate gene products in the symbiont that play an active role in the activation of host apoptosis, usually by directly activating molecules involved either in apoptotic signaling or in apoptosis (such as caspases). Proteins and other molecules detected by the host that trigger host apoptosis should not be annotated to this term.
