BXI1/YNL305C Protein Information Help

Standard Name Bxi1p 1
Systematic Name Ynl305cp
Alias Ybh3p 2
ORF Classification Verified
Description Protein involved in apoptosis; variously described as containing a BCL-2 homology (BH3) domain or as a member of the BAX inhibitor family; reported to promote apoptosis under some conditions and to inhibit it in others; localizes to ER and vacuole; may link the unfolded protein response to apoptosis via regulation of calcium-mediated signaling; translocates to mitochondria under apoptosis-inducing conditions in a process involving Mir1p and Cor1p (1, 2, 3, 4, 5)
Name Description BaX Inhibitor 1
