Function |
Promotes activation of caspases and apoptosis. Promotes mitochondrial membrane changes and efflux of apoptogenic proteins from the mitochondria. Contributes to p53/TP53-dependent apoptosis after radiation exposure. Promotes proteasomal degradation of MCL1. Competes with BIM/BCL2L11 for binding to MCL1 and can displace BIM/BCL2L11 from its binding site on MCL1 (By similarity). Competes with BAK1 for binding to MCL1 and can displace BAK1 from its binding site on MCL1. {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10807576, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15694340, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15901672, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16822983, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17389404}.
