Abstract excerpt
Apoptotic cell death and survival is controlled by pro- and antiapoptotic proteins. Because these proteins act on each other, cell fate is dictated by the relative activity of pro- versus antiapoptotic proteins. Here we report that BRUCE, a conserved 528 kDa peripheral membrane protein of the trans-Golgi network, protects cells against apoptosis and functions as an inhibitor of apoptosis (IAP). By using wild-type...
