Gene information for BAG5 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID9529
Official gene symbolBAG5
Full nameBCL2-associated athanogene 5
Aliases,BAG-5,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene is a member of the BAG1-related protein family. BAG1 is an anti-apoptotic protein that functions through interactions with a variety of cell apoptosis and growth related proteins including BCL-2, Raf-protein kinase, steroid hormone receptors, growth factor receptors and members of the heat shock protein 70 kDa family. This protein contains a BAG domain near the C-terminus, which could bind and inhibit the chaperone activity of Hsc70/Hsp70. Three transcript variants encoding two different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq]
