Phospho-BAD(S71) Blocking Peptide

Peptides; Blocking Peptides

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the BCL-2family. BCL-2 family members are known to be regulators ofprogrammed cell death. This protein positively regulates cellapoptosis by forming heterodimers with BCL-xL and BCL-2, andreversing their death repressor activity. Proapoptotic activity ofthis protein is regulated through its phosphorylation. Proteinkinases AKT and MAP kinase, as well as protein phosphatasecalcineurin were found to be involved in the regulation of thisprotein. Alternative splicing of this gene results in twotranscript variants which encode the same isoform. [provided byRefSeq].
