Hydra Bcl-2 and TMBIMP family proteins display anti-apoptotic functions

2018-07-02

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Mechanisms of programmed cell death differ considerably between animals, plants and fungi. In animals they depend on caspases and Bcl-2 family proteins and this kind of cell death is called apoptosis. Most gene families encoding proteins involved in apoptosis are found in multicellular animals already in the eldest phyla but their functional conservation is still being studied. Much older prot...
