Background
BCL2L2, BCLW, KIAA0271, Bcl-2-like protein 2, Bcl2-L-2, Apoptosis regulator Bcl-WBCL2L2 encodes a member (BCL2 like 2)of the BCL-2 protein family. The proteins of this family form hetero- or homodimers and act as anti- and pro-apoptotic regulators. Expression of BCL2L2 in cells has been shown to contribute to reduced cell apoptosis under cytotoxic conditions. Studies of the related gene in mice indicated a role in the survival of NGF- and BDNF-dependent neurons. Mutation and knockout studies of the mouse gene demonstrated an essential role in adult spermatogenesis. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. Read-through transcription also exists between this gene and the neighboring downstream PABPN1 (poly (A) binding protein, nuclear 1) gene.
