Other NameBNIP3; NIP3; BCL2/adenovirus E1B 19 kDa protein-interacting protein 3
Functionfunction:Apoptosis-inducing protein that, which can overcome BCL2 suppression. May play a role in repartitioning calcium between the two major intracellular calcium stores in association with BCL2.,similarity:Belongs to the NIP3 family.,subcellular location:Coexpression with the EIB 19-kDa protein results in a shift in NIP3 localization pattern to the nuclear envelope.,subunit:Homodimer. Binds to BCL2. Interacts with BNIP3L. Also can interact with adenovirus E1B 19 kDa protein or Epstein-Barr virus BHRF1.,
Subcellular LocationMitochondrion. Mitochondrion outer membrane; Single-pass membrane protein. Coexpression with the EIB 19-kDa protein results in a shift in NIP3 localization pattern to the nuclear envelope. Colocalizes with ACAA2 in the mitochondria. Colocalizes with SPATA18 at the mitochondrion outer membrane.
ExpressionB-cell,Brain,Cerebellum,Kidney,Testis,,
BackgroundBCL2 interacting protein 3(BNIP3) Homo sapiens This gene is encodes a mitochondrial protein that contains a BH3 domain and acts as a pro-apoptotic factor. The encoded protein interacts with anti-apoptotic proteins, including the E1B 19 kDa protein and Bcl2. This gene is silenced in tumors by DNA methylation. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2014],
