Bcl-2 phosphorylation and implications in apoptosis in cancer cells

Bcl-2 is the central regulator in apoptosis. Structural studies of Bcl-2 reveal a flexible loop flanking the Bcl-2 homology domain 3 (BH3) and BH4. In response to external stimuli, several kinases phosphorylate the loop of Bcl-2. Phosphorylation on Bcl-2 has been thought to affect the protein’s acti...
