Target
BMF
(Bcl2 Modifying Factor (BMF))
Alternative Name
Bmf
Background
In healthy cells, Bmf associates with the dynein light chain 2 component of the myosin V motors and is sequestered by the cell's actin cytoskeleton. Disruption of the actin cytoskeleton, either by depolymerization of actin filaments or by detachment of cells from the extracellular matrix, triggers release and activation of Bmf, initiating the downstream apoptotic program. Bmf is constitutively expressed in many tissues.
