Official gene symbol | | BCLAF1 |
Full name | | BCL2-associated transcription factor 1 |
Aliases | | ,BTF,KIAA0164,bK211L9.1, |
Gene summary | | This gene encodes a transcriptional repressor that interacts with several members of the BCL2 family of proteins. Overexpression of this protein induces apoptosis, which can be suppressed by co-expression of BCL2 proteins. The protein localizes to dot-like structures throughout the nucleus, and redistributes to a zone near the nuclear envelope in cells undergoing apoptosis. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq] |
