Bcl-2familyproteins-mediatedapoptosis

BAD: Phosphorylation sequesters it in the cytosol

Bcl-2familyproteins-mediatedapoptosis

*Bcl-2 must change conformation (or be ‘activated’) on the mitochondria to inhibit Bax (Dglugosz PJ, EMBO J. 25, 2287, 2006).

*Bcl-2 and Bcl-xL (and other prosurvival members) are the guardians of the mitochondria: they are inactivated when BH3-only proteins juxtapose their BH3 domain to Bcl-2 (protein-protein interaction)..

*These proteins are transcribed into multiple splice variants.

*Bcl-2 is phosphorylated by many apoptotic stimuli. Phosphorylation of Bcl-2 within the flexible loop generally inhibits its anti-apoptotic activity. But it has also been reported that phosphorylation is required for its apoptosis-inhibitory effect.

*Bcl-2 and Bcl-xL can also be cleaved by caspases during apoptosis. Cleaved proteins turns themselves into apoptotic killers.

*Bcl-xL may undergo deamidation: deamidation of Asn imparts susceptibility to apoptosis by disrupting the ability of Bcl-xL to block the proapoptotic activity of BH3-only proteins.
