Magic™ Membrane Protein Human BAK1 (BCL2 antagonist/killer 1) (CAT#: MP0004F)

Human Bak (hBak) is a multidomain proapoptotic member located in the outer mitochondrial membrane (OMM), containing a unique transmembrane domain located on the C-terminus part of the protein. Bak is a key regulator of programmed cell death and controls apoptosis through protein-protein interaction. It is a member of the Bcl-2 family of antiapoptotic and proapoptotic proteins.

  • Introduction
  • The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the BCL2 protein family. BCL2 family members form oligomers or heterodimers and act as anti- or pro-apoptotic regulators that are involved in a wide variety of cellular activities. This protein localizes to mitochondria, and functions to induce apoptosis. It interacts with and accelerates the opening of the mitochondrial voltage-dependent anion channel, which leads to a loss in membrane potential and the release of cytochrome c. This protein also interacts with the tumor suppressor P53 after exposure to cell stress.
  • Alternative Names
  • BAK, CDN1, BCL2L7, BAK-LIKE
