A natural antisense transcript, BOKAS, regulates the pro-apoptotic activity of human Bok
13 Mar 2009
Abstract excerpt
Bok is a proapoptotic member in the Bcl-2 family and the expression of Bok is regulated by cellular stresses. In the present study, we have isolated and characterized a natural antisense transcript of Bok, BOKAS. The BOKAS gene consists of 2 exons, that expresses as a non-protein coding transcript. Both BOKAS and Bok are transcribed from the same locus but in opposite orientations. The mRNA expression of BOKAS...
