Background
This gene encodes an anti-apoptotic protein, which is a member of the Bcl-2 family. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. The longest gene product (isoform 1) enhances cell survival by inhibiting apoptosis while the alternatively spliced shorter gene products (isoform 2 and isoform 3) promote apoptosis and are death-inducing.

Function
function:Involved in the regulation of apoptosis versus cell survival, and in the maintenance of viability but not of proliferation. Mediates its effects by interactions with a number of other regulators of apoptosis. Isoform 1 inhibits apoptosis while isoform 2 promotes it.,induction:Expression increases early during phorbol-ester induced differentiation along the monocyte/macrophage pathway in myeloid leukemia cell lines ML-1. Rapidly up-regulated by CSF2 in ML-1 cells. Up-regulated by heat-shock induced differentiation. Expression increases early during retinoic acid-induced differentiation.,PTM:Cleaved by CASP3 during apoptosis. In intact cells cleavage occurs preferentially after Asp-127, yielding a pro-apoptotic 28 kDa C-terminal fragment.,PTM:Phosphorylated on Thr-163. Treatment with taxol or okadaic acid induces phosphorylation on additional sites.,PTM:Rapidly degraded in the abs
