bcl-2-Associated X Protein

Bax Apoptosis Regulator Protein; Bax-beta Protein; Bax-delta Protein; bcl2-Associated X Protein; bcl2-Associated X Protein Isoform alpha; bcl2-Associated X Protein Isoform beta; bcl2-Associated X Protein Isoform delta
A member of the Bcl-2 protein family and homologous partner of C-BCL-2 PROTO-ONCOGENE PROTEIN. It regulates the release of CYTOCHROME C and APOPTOSIS INDUCING FACTOR from the MITOCHONDRIA. Several isoforms of BCL2-associated X protein occur due to ALTERNATIVE SPLICING of the mRNA for this protein.
