PUMA Promotes Bax Translocation by Both Directly Interacting with Bax and by Competitive Binding to Bcl-X<sub>L</sub> during UV-induced Apoptosis
13 May 2009
Abstract excerpt
Cell apoptosis induced by UV irradiation is a highly complex process in which different molecular signaling pathways are involved. p53 up-regulated modulator of apoptosis (PUMA) has been proposed as an important regulator in UV irradiation-induced apoptosis. However, the molecular mechanism through which PUMA regulates apoptosis, especially how PUMA activates Bcl-2-associated X protein (Bax) in response to UV...
