Abstract excerpt
Bcl-2 family members are regulators of cell death. The precise biochemical properties of these proteins are unclear although intrafamily protein-protein association is thought to be involved. To elucidate structure-activity relationships among Bcl-2 proteins and identify the pathways in which they act, an inducible death suppressor assay was developed in yeast. Only Bax and Bak killed yeast via a process that did...
