Comments
Comment typeDescription
Domain Intact BH3 motif is required by BIK, BID, BAK, BAD and BAX for their pro-apoptotic activity and for their interaction with anti-apoptotic members of the Bcl-2 family.
Function Accelerates programmed cell death. Association to the apoptosis repressors Bcl-X(L), BHRF1, Bcl-2 or its adenovirus homolog E1B 19k protein suppresses this death-promoting activity. Does not interact with BAX. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:8521816}.
Interaction P10415:BCL2; NbExp=3; IntAct=EBI-700794, EBI-77694; Q07817:BCL2L1; NbExp=2; IntAct=EBI-700794, EBI-78035; Q07817-1:BCL2L1; NbExp=3; IntAct=EBI-700794, EBI-287195; Q92843:BCL2L2; NbExp=2; IntAct=EBI-700794, EBI-707714;
Ptm Proteolytically cleaved by RHBDL4/RHBDD1. RHBDL4/RHBDD1- induced cleavage is a necessary step prior its degradation by the proteosome-dependent mechanism. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18953687}.
Subcellular Location Endomembrane system; Single-pass membrane protein. Mitochondrion membrane {ECO:0000250}; Single-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000250}. Note=Around the nuclear envelope, and in cytoplasmic membranes.
Subunit Interacts with RHBDL4/RHBDD1. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18953687}.
