Bcl-2 inhibits p53 nuclear import following DNA damage

Oncogene

Abstract

Bcl-2 is an integral membrane oncoprotein that localizes to membranes of the mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, and nuclear envelope. Bcl-2 is a member of a family of cell death regulators and functions to inhibit apoptosis. Using confocal microscopy and immunoblotting we show that the ability of bcl-2 to suppress cell death following genotoxic damage can be a consequence of inhibiting nuclear import of induced wild-type p53 protein. Our data suggests that the ability of bcl-2 to modulate trafficking events is not cell type specific. These data support a 'gatekeeper' mechanism for cell death suppression by bcl-2.

BCL-2 Family Proteins

BLC-2 family proteins are a group that share the same homologous BH domain. They play many different roles including pro-survival signals, mitochondria-mediated apoptosis and removal or damaged cells. They are often regulated by phosphorylation, affecting their catalytic activity. Here is the latest research on BCL-2 family proteins.

Apoptosis

Apoptosis is a specific process that leads to programmed cell death through the activation of an evolutionary conserved intracellular pathway leading to pathognomic cellular changes distinct from cellular necrosis
