BAX inhibitor (BI)-1 Mammalian members of the BAX inhibitor (BI)-1 like family of small transmembrane proteins have been shown to have an antiapoptotic effect either by stimulating the antiapoptotic function of Bcl-2, a well-characterized oncogene, or by inhibiting the proapoptotic effect of Bax, another member of the Bcl-2 family. Their broad tissue distribution and high degree of conservation suggests an important regulatory role. In plants, BI-1 like proteins play a role in pathogen resistance. |
