General annotation (Comments)

Function

Dominant regulator of apoptotic cell death. The long form displays cell death repressor activity, whereas the short isoform promotes apoptosis. Also acts as a regulator of G2 checkpoint and progression to cytokinesis during mitosis By similarity.

Subcellular location

Mitochondrion membrane; Single-pass membrane protein By similarity. Nucleus membrane; Single-pass membrane protein; Cytoplasmic side By similarity. Cytoplasmcytoskeletoncentrosome By similarity. Note: Mitochondrial membranes and perinuclear envelope By similarity.

Tissue specificity

Highest expression in organs with lymphoid development.

Domain

The BH4 motif seems to be involved in the anti-apoptotic function. Intact BH1 and BH2 motifs are required for anti-apoptotic activity By similarity.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the Bcl-2 family.

Alternative products

This entry describes 2 isoforms produced by alternative splicing. [Align] [Select]
Isoform Long (identifier: Q07816-1)

This isoform has been chosen as the 'canonical' sequence. All positional information in this entry refers to it. This is also the sequence that appears in the downloadable versions of the entry.
Isoform Short (identifier: Q07816-2)

The sequence of this isoform differs from the canonical sequence as follows:
     185-229: ERFVDLYGNNAAAELRKGQETFNKWLLTGATVAGVLLLGSLLSRK → VRTALP
